Background

About Brett Phillips

With 18 years of successful executive recruitment engagements at some of the leading executive recruitment firms in life sciences, I offer well-rounded experience and a tenacious, solution-oriented approach to finding candidates that not only meet job requirements but also fit the corporate culture. My experience spans the entire recruitment cycle from identifying, interviewing, and presenting candidates to partnering with clients on developing corporate recruitment strategies. I work closely with clients to define recruitment requirements for Board, C-suite, and VP-level positions that are critical to the company in the areas of discovery, development and commercial leadership. Trust is vital in the process of executive recruitment. We are dealing with confidential matters that have the potential to impact the future of life-saving treatments. I bring a calm presence that puts candidates at ease and builds confidence with clients, enabling me to engage and consult with all stakeholders at any organizational level across all functional disciplines. My passion for the life sciences motivates me in each engagement. I am a recruiter, not a searcher. I believe the relationships that I have built and continue to build allow me to approach each engagement as a recruiter, targeting top talent, as opposed to a resume gatherer. Having even the smallest part in recruiting the best executive leaders that lead to discoveries in medicine that either help with an unmet need or enhance a current medicine has driven me for nearly two decades.
