Excelya

Excelya is a European clinical research organization (CRO) that provides specialized services to the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device industries. The company supports clients across the full drug development lifecycle, from project management and regulatory affairs to data management, biostatistics, and site monitoring. While its exact employee count is not disclosed, it operates across multiple European countries and positions itself as a comprehensive, mid-sized CRO partner to both mid-size and large pharmaceutical companies.

In Spain, Excelya runs notable operations from Barcelona, hiring locally for a range of clinical research roles that support international projects. Work culture in the clinical research sector is project-driven and highly collaborative, with cross-border teams and frequent interaction with global sponsors. For international professionals, the company offers a clear entry point into Spain's thriving biotech and pharma hub, with roles often tied to remote or flexible setups and requires strong English communication, as much of the work is delivered for clients across Europe and beyond.
