WARSAW, POLAND - Apr 14, 2014 - Warsaw - 14 April 2014 - European Clinical Research Organization (CRO), KCR, is pleased to announce the launch of its new business enterprise: KCR Placement.

The new company focuses on "fit for purpose" staffing for pharma and biotech communities in Europe and is a wholly owned subsidiary of KCR.

This is our next step in realizing our company strategy to be one of the key regional R&D service providers," says Mike Jagielski, CEO of KCR.

KCR Placement staffing experts are specialists in the functional disciplines they recruit in, to ensure they have an excellent understanding of the clients' requirements, as well as properly assess skill sets, cultural fit and aspirations of potential candidates. "We apply a special recruitment approach, based on recruiting 'A players' - candidates who have at least a 90 per cent chance of achieving a set of outcomes that only those 10 per cent of possible candidates could achieve," adds Iwona Szmigielska, HR Director at KCR.

KCR Placement provides services in the following three main areas:

• Permanent Placement
