Headhunter Pharma - direct search and our own candidate pool

As a headhunting agency, we focus on professional and personal direct search on site, on the phone and online when recruiting for a vacancy. By approaching potential candidates personally, we already achieve a good response rate at this point.

We can also draw on our own pool of candidates, which we have built up over the years through the last three decades. Filled with internal and verified contacts of qualified specialists and managers, today the candidate pool provides a valuable basis for our work as headhunters.

Pharmaceutical industry as a multi-layered sector

Specialised personnel in the pharmaceutical industry must have various skills and fulfil specific job requirements. Specialists with training in pharmacy, biotechnology, biochemistry, medicine and other natural science subjects are particularly in demand.

In addition, there are overlaps with medical technology, which has grown out of the pharmaceutical industry and today offers devices and software solutions in the various application areas of the healthcare system. Since we as a headhunting agency have been supported companies from both industries for many years, we are able to delineate the different fields. You can find out more Here.

Finding the right candidates with a target profile

As headhunters for the pharmaceutical industry, we work with a target profile to differentiate between the various specialist areas and the competences each job requires. In cooperation with you, we determine exactly which professional competencies the candidates must bring to the job and which additional qualifications and key competencies are needed. This ensures that we present you with candidates who meet the requirements of the respective position only.

If it becomes clear at this point that you are actually looking for medical technology specialists, our headhunters for the medical technology industry will be happy to help you. You can find out more about our expertise in this field Here.

Passive recruitment as headhunters for the pharmaceutical industry

In addition to active headhunting, we also use passive recruitment tools. We place advertisements for you in our own portals and on suitable platforms to increase awareness in the community and make you visible to potential applicants.

If you wish, this can also be done anonymously. In such cases, you will not be explicitly named as a client and we will conduct a covert search for you. This can be particularly relevant when filling management positions, for example, if the current holder of the position has not yet been informed about the replacement.

In general, we are always careful in our work to protect your data and not to pass it on to third parties without your consent.

Our headhunters also recruit executives

New appointments or replacements of executives may become necessary for various reasons. As a headhunting agency, we have many years of experience in this field and are happy to support you in the recruitment of managing directors, candidates for the management board, but also in the search for suitable personnel for management positions and executives in the various specialist departments.
