Our Horsham (HQ) Office
Barrington James was founded in 2002, with our first office located in Horley before moving to our London Gatwick Global HQ in 2020 to support our rapid growth. Now, we are taking the next big step—relocating to a brand-new, state-of-the-art office in Horsham, doubling our space to accommodate our ever-expanding team. This move marks another significant milestone in our journey and reinforces our ethos of becoming the biggest and best life science recruitment company on the planet.
Home to over 100 people and growing daily, our Global HQ continues to lead our worldwide teams in performance, driven by the entrepreneurial and hardworking culture that has been at the heart of Barrington James for decades. This culture, fostered by leaders who have been with the company for many years, remains the backbone of our success in building a global name.
All of our offices offer equal opportunities for growth and development through our comprehensive training programs, ensuring every team member has the support to excel.

Over the past five years, I’ve moved from Resourcer to Team Sales Manager, thanks to incredible mentors at Barrington James. Their guidance has been invaluable, especially during times of growth and challenge. Breaking the record for the highest billed month and winning Sales Person of The Year was a huge accomplishment, marking the consistency and dedication I’ve built with my clients over time. For anyone inspired to push boundaries, I’d say take it step-by-step, improve just a bit every day, and stay focused on the bigger picture. This is just the beginning, and I’m beyond excited for what lies ahead!
I have been at Barrington James for the past 4 years, moving from Consultant to Team Sales Manager within my first 2 and a half years. I joined with no prior recruitment experience but the training programme here at Barrington James along with guidance from my Director, enabled me to progress very fast within the company. I am so grateful to work within one of, if not the best markets in Artificial Intelligence and I am lucky enough to work with some of the most innovative companies across Europe who are at the forefront of technology! Taking the leap into recruitment isn't easy and it takes a lot of hard work, dedication and patience but with the platform that Barrington James provides, you couldn't be in a better place to succeed. I am so excited for what's to come for the Essex office as we grow and expand, this really is just the start!
I joined Barrington James as the only “externally hired” Manager nearly 2 years ago. I was immediately amazed by the work ethic, market knowledge and the ability of my peers. My journey started as “Launch Manager” where I would on-board any new/junior consultants as they started their BJ career. Now I lead a unit of experienced consultants within a variety of markets. I won Office MVP for 2024 and was delighted to see that in 3 consecutive months, “Salesperson of the month” award was given to graduates of our “Launch” program I had the privilege of on-boarding. All be it my time here is small compared to other business leaders, I have seen first-hand how BJ develop talent into market experts who are dedicated to delivering talent to their clients. I can’t wait to see what the company achieves in the future & I’m privileged to be a part of it
