The firm was founded by several senior consultants who had previously held leadership positions with the large, general practice firms including Heidrick & Struggles, Spencer Stuart and Russell Reynolds. In addition, our partners have held senior positions at leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in the United States and Europe.

Our executive search assignments focus primarily on senior management positions with the Life Sciences Industry. Our clients include several of the top ten pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies as well as leading "specialty" pharmaceutical companies, diagnostic companies, device companies and pharmaceutical service companies. Our firm has extensive experience in successfully recruiting General Managers and functional heads of Business Development, Finance, Human Resources, Legal, Medical, Manufacturing, Marketing, Regulatory, Research and Development, Quality Control and Safety. In addition, we have worked in these functional areas outside of the life Sciences Industry.
