    GSK - what agents deal with them?

    Does anybody know who are on their preferred supplier list? I've spotted a role but the agent has a limit of 1 cv he can send. I think I'm a good match but saw the role after he submitted
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

    I assume you can't apply direct then?

    Edit: Have just seen this. http://www.gsk.com/careers/uk-agency-supplier.htm. Don't know how relevant this is to your cause. I assume you can apply to be on their preferred suppliers list.

    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

      No - don't know who is hiring etc. I've been out of GSK for a while so I don't have any contacts there anymore

          SRG are preferred suppliers to GSK. I have worked thru SRG and they are OK.

          GSK will not put your Ltd Co on their approved vendor lists. Good luck, HTH.

              Do you know who their European preferred suppliers are? They have a big office and lab near Utrecht, but I can't find the preferred supplier.

                No idea - but I used to have that picture of Fran Cotton as a poster on me bedroom wall when I was a young-un

                  Brilliant picture; just sums up everything about playing in the forwards.

                    Sorry no. But ask SRG if they're not, I'm certain they will tell you who is, I've found them very helpful in the past. It would be no loss to them if they weren't able to operate with GSK in NL if they told who actually did. Try calling Uterecht GSK and ask directly? Good luck.
