How Evolving Workforce Demands in Life Sciences Are Reshaping Talent Supply Strategies
Discover in our latest research report how AI, talent scarcity, and supplier optimisation are transforming workforce planning in Life Sciences.
As AI accelerates drug discovery, clinical trial design, and digital health innovation, Life Sciences companies are under increasing pressure to evolve their workforce models. But while technology is reshaping the how of work, the who, where, and with whom are equally under transformation.
In our latest whitepaper, ‘Adapting to Change: How Evolving Workforce Demands in Life Sciences Are Reshaping Talent Supply Strategies’, Skills Alliance Enterprise explores how global pharma, biotech, and medtech firms are redesigning talent strategies to meet new operational, technological, and competitive realities.
Based on first-hand insights from senior HR, procurement, and TA leaders—plus case studies from leading organisations such as Novartis, AstraZeneca, and Sana Biotechnology—this report unpacks:
- The growing influence of artificial intelligence on talent profiles, especially in translational science, data analytics, and regulatory functions
- How the extended workforce (contractors, freelancers, SOW, CRO/FSP/CDMO partners) now makes up nearly half of total headcount in many organisations
- The risks of “invisible talent” and why full visibility into non-permanent labour is crucial for compliance, agility, and productivity
- Why legacy supplier models are breaking down—and how companies are adopting more strategic, streamlined talent supply chains
- The rise of internal talent marketplaces, integrated workforce tech, and skills-based hiring as enablers of future-ready operating models
