Our Story
Our story is likely much like yours. A group of former PhDs who, after years of toiling in the academic sector, found themselves feeling disenchanted by the frustration, limitations, and red tape that came with our work. Feeling stuck by our own success, we started to ask ourselves a simple question: Could the experience, skill-sets, and expertise gained through our years in academia pave the way for success in industry as highly sought-after professionals?
The answer, we found, was yes. A resounding yes. We discovered that top companies in industry were eager to add highly qualified and highly distinguished PhDs to their roster. They just had to find these PhDs first.
And so Cheeky Scientist was born, a company built by PhDs, working to help other PhDs get hired into their dream careers so they could finally have the impact, recognition and compensation they deserve.
