Vivexa Partners

Vivexa Partners is a specialist, human-first talent and recruitment consultancy supporting the global life sciences and clinical research industry.

Founded by Theodora Savlovschi-Wicks after more than 15 years working in life sciences recruitment and CRO partnerships, Vivexa was created to offer something more focused, informed and genuinely personal.

The business works particularly closely with contract research organisations, specialist consultancies, biotechnology companies and clinical technology businesses.

Expertise Across Clinical Research

Clinical Delivery

Clinical Operations, Project Management, Study Start-Up and Regulatory.

Science & Data

Biometrics, Quality and Medical specialists across the clinical research lifecycle.

Leadership & Talent Solutions

Commercial and executive leadership, embedded talent acquisition and market intelligence.

Vivexa supports permanent, contract, interim and executive hiring across the UK, Europe, the United States and Canada. Every search combines specialist market knowledge with a genuinely human, fair and equitable approach.

Knowledge, Community & Global Perspective

Before founding Vivexa, Theo spent more than a decade with a global life sciences recruitment firm, holding senior leadership roles, building recruitment teams and supporting more than 850 international appointments across over 150 organisations.

Alongside recruitment, Vivexa publishes The CROnicles and hosts The Human Protocol podcast, exploring the people, partnerships and strategic developments shaping drug development and the CRO sector.

Theo also contributes to discussions on clinical operations, workforce strategy, women’s leadership and responsible technology adoption. She is Chair of the Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association’s Central and Eastern Europe region, an EMEA Board member and founding leader of HBA Bucharest.

Looking ahead, Vivexa is focused on becoming an increasingly trusted specialist partner to CROs and emerging life sciences organisations across Europe and North America.

Recent Assignments:

  • Senior European project-management leadership appointments
  • Study start-up, regulatory and specialist feasibility appointments
  • Freelance CRA delivery across Europe, the United States and Canada

“Building an independent recruitment business can be rather isolating if you try to solve every operational and commercial challenge alone. The SSG and Korelate network gives Vivexa access to strong infrastructure, compliance expertise and, importantly, a community of fellow founders with whom we can exchange ideas and experience.”
