Company Description
Magnet is a Boston-based people advisory and talent partner dedicated to the unique needs of life sciences companies, blending deep Human Resources and Talent Acquisition expertise to help founders and leaders build cultures that feel truly magnetic. Co-founded by Sarah Larson and Wendy Durkin, the firm serves venture-backed startups and scaling biotechs through a flexible, fractional model that aligns to stage, budget, and growth goals. Magnet’s five-phase methodology begins with the X-Ray Phase to diagnose root causes across people strategy, then moves into a Whiteboard Phase where multiple tailored options are designed, followed by hands-on Implementation to build right-sized HR infrastructure, processes, and teams. When clients are ready, Magnet transitions its fractional support to full-time hires in the “You’re Magnetic” Phase, and continues in an Advisory capacity to mentor, coach, and upskill internal teams. Offerings span organizational design and workforce planning, executive talent identification and onboarding, end-to-end hiring process design and optimization, compensation planning and policy development, leadership enablement, employee relations and compliance, and one-time project delivery for urgent or specialized needs. The team partners closely with executive stakeholders to intentionally define culture, align people strategy with business objectives, and create scalable systems that attract, select, and retain mission-aligned talent. Known for cutting through complexity with “x-ray vision,” Magnet delivers clear, practical solutions without generic playbooks, leveraging an exclusive network of HR and TA professionals to bring the right expertise at the right time. Whether a company is launching its first HR function, recovering from rapid growth, addressing high turnover or fragmented processes, or preparing to scale, Magnet embeds alongside leaders to solve problems, implement durable solutions, and leave organizations stronger, future-ready, and energized.
