ON Partners named to the 2020 Top 50 Healthcare & Life Sciences Search Firm ranking for the second year in a row by Hunt Scanlon Media

 

 

March 2021 – ON Partners, the experience-driven retained executive search firm is proud to be ranked in the Top 50 Healthcare and Life Sciences Search Firm list for the second year in a row.  This ‘Top 50’ ranking of specialist search firms dedicated to these two powerful sectors is presented by market research firm Hunt Scanlon.

ON Partners consultants had a busy 2020 with high-level executive life sciences and healthcare placements across a wide range of organizations, including AspenTech, Gilead,  Rebus Biosystems, Sangamo Therapeutics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and more. We believe a better executive search experience matters, and that experience starts with expert, tenured specialists.  Suzanne Zebedee, Ph.D. and Steve Cornacchia are leading partners and expert consultants within the ON Partners’ healthcare and life sciences practice.

Notes ON’s Steve Cornacchia, “Over the past several months, we found ourselves quickly pivoting alongside our clients in order to respond to market challenges the pandemic brought to the healthcare industry and the country. We moved into functions and spaces to help support clients that were suddenly in the epicenter of helping the nation, having to quickly ramp up to manufacture and distribute tests and initialize potential novel therapies to fight the virus. We also worked with clients whose businesses were suddenly heavily impacted by challenges to our hospital infrastructure and sidelining of the non-COVID related therapies, products and services that they market.”

Notes ON’s Suzanne Zebedee, Ph.D. about how the pandemic has impacted the sector, “Many clients have shared that they initiated new programs or pivoted from non-infectious disease programs to help with virus detection, therapeutics or vaccines. This brings a few advantages – one is to do their part to contribute scientifically to advance the science around the virus and disease and the second is to raise awareness of the company and platform technologies which will help when extended to other diseases.”

These expert consultants bring substantial recruiting and operating experience from the life sciences and healthcare industry. Their expertise strengthens our solid understanding of what creates successful, effective leaders in this highly regulated and demanding scientific space.

We have a successful track record of placing executives across a breadth of corporate, commercial, research, and development functions. We have experience recruiting for companies across all development stages from large multinationals to early-stage venture-backed companies, including the following sectors:
