TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OBIO® (Ontario Bioscience Innovation Organization) is proud to announce the launch of the OBIO Job Board and Talent Network. Created in response to the growing needs of health science companies, the OBIO Job Board and Talent Network will ensure that OBIO member companies will be poised for a strong recovery after the pandemic and on the path to a brighter future.
“Since 2017, OBIO has been delivering programming to develop the health science industry workforce. By working closely with employers, we are able to support their evolving needs for talent. To help our member companies find the skilled employees they require, OBIO created the OBIO Job board. The new job board is designed to meet the unique needs of the health science industry as they grow and scale their companies,” said Gail Garland, President and CEO of OBIO.
The Job Board provides access to an automated career page and talent network designed to allow companies to easily post jobs, connect with, review, and manage talent all in one place. OBIO members also have access to a talent database filled with a growing list of qualified career job seekers looking to work in the health science industry which will help companies find the right candidate to speed up the hiring process.
To launch the Job Board and Talent Network, OBIO hosted Sean Silcoff, an award-winning business writer and reporter with The Globe and Mail, for a discussion on the future of talent development in the Canadian economy and how Canada can be competitive globally.
Sean Silcoff shared his observations on how Canada’s leading emerging health science companies could position themselves to grow by developing and investing in experienced corporate leaders. Sean also discussed the talent gaps that early-stage companies need to address and drew from his past reporting to discuss how Canada is faring at building a globally competitive health science ecosystem in Canada.
