About Us

Since 1997, we have focused exclusively on medical sales and marketing recruitment, helping organisations build high-performing commercial teams. Our long-standing presence in the market gives us deep insight into talent availability, candidate behaviour and what drives success in medical sales.

We work with leaders across established organisations, high-growth businesses and start-ups, many of whom operate with limited internal recruitment resources. Our exclusive focus means we understand the realities of selling into complex healthcare environments, including the NHS, and the importance of hiring people who can deliver results.

We combine a proactive search methodology with honest advice and clear communication, working selectively to build long-term partnerships.

Alongside client recruitment, we support candidates throughout their careers and provide outplacement services to help organisations and individuals navigate change with confidence.

The Problems We Solve

Medical sales and marketing hiring is increasingly competitive, and traditional recruitment methods often fail to reach the right talent.

Many organisations struggle with hard-to-fill roles, long hiring timelines and repeated exposure to the same limited candidate pool. Others face unstructured recruitment processes, inconsistent candidate experience or uncertainty when assessing capability and cultural fit.

Senior, niche or confidential hires require a more strategic and discreet approach, while most high-quality candidates sit in the passive market and are never reached through advertising or a traditional, contingent, “no win-no fee” approach. Without access to this hidden talent, hiring risk and cost increase.

We bring structure, clarity and confidence to the hiring process, helping organisations access the full market and secure appointments that perform and deliver lasting commercial impact.
