Liam Harrington

Senior Business Development Lead

I took the opportunity to join QCS Staffing in May 2025 undertaking the position of Business Development Executive within the Life Sciences division. I joined with 7 years experience as a Senior Recruitment Consultant and Team Manager within the Healthcare Sector.

The experience I’ve gained within Recruitment has taught me to remain measured in both success and adversity.

Outside of work I have a passion for entertaining at home with my fiancé and doing my best (and often failing) to master different dishes from around the world. I am also involved in running an electronic music label with my brother, which certainly keeps me busy in my spare time!
