HealthTech Strategy and Business Development Opportunity
Global HealthTech-Focused Professional Services Firm Greater Boston
We are a fun, fast paced team of consultants with previous experience in blue chip, bulge bracket firms who have chosen to join the healthtech advisory business. You would become part of this team and have apprenticeship with experienced senior consultants, and then develop your own area of expertise to become the “go to” person for clients in the corporate, private equity, and venture capital sectors. A genuine interest in people in terms of what motivates them and makes them successful is a key criteria for success in our industry. Over time, successful consultants will be advising Boards of major corporations on the appointment of Directors, as well as assessment and placement of Executive Committee members, to become a truly trusted advisor.
Specifically, our strategy combines the significant information we glean from market intelligence and an internal needs assessment to identify clients’ strategic goals and challenges. We analyze these findings in partnership with clients to extrapolate the key competencies and skills required for success in the role, and agree upon target candidate pools. We source the global market, assess potential prospects, and interview candidates, gauging relevant experience and qualitative factors. We guide clients through a search process to a successful offer negotiation. Throughout this process, we consistently deliver insightful, impactful, and nuanced counsel to the client.
In addition to executing assignments, as their careers evolve, consultants build and deepen long-term client relationships through the execution of the highest quality work and the pursuit of a range of business development activities. Our senior consultants develop market-validated reputations for their expertise, and are recognized by leading companies within their sector as trusted advisors.
