    The Raleigh-Durham Research Triangle is one of the largest life science clusters in the U.S., with over 600 companies and nearly 32,000 life sciences professionals driving innovation.

    Raleigh’s overall cost of living is slightly lower than or comparable to the national average. For example, recent data shows that while housing costs in Raleigh are about 4.7% lower than the national average, other expenses.

    From 2020 to 2022, North Carolina’s life sciences companies committed to invest over $9.1 billion and create approximately 12,500 new jobs.

    Our People

    Real People, Real Success

    My journey at Barrington James has been incredible. I worked with clients across Asia, spent time at our London Gatwick HQ, and finally made it to my dream destination: New York City. Winning Sales Person of the Year last year was a huge achievement and truly rewarding after years of hard work and dedication. New York was always the goal. My first visit in 2015 left a lasting impression, and knowing Barrington James had a New York office made joining the team an easy decision. Although moving during COVID added complexity, the support from Barrington James made everything seamless.
