What Our Clients Say

Associate Director, Machine Learning
"I had the pleasure of working with Alex during my hiring process for a Boston-based AI drug discovery biotech, and I can't recommend him highly enough. From our first conversation, Alex was knowledgeable about the industry and highly strategic in guiding me through the process. He ensured I was well-prepared for each step of the interview process, provided valuable insights, and ultimately helped me secure an offer that aligned with my career goals. Beyond that, he advocated for me during negotiations, ensuring my compensation expectations were met.
Alex is a dedicated recruiter who genuinely cares about finding the right fit for both candidates and companies. If you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile, he's the person to connect with."
Chief Executive Officer
"Alex is a consummate partner for early- and growth-stage biotech companies looking to solve clear leadership and governance needs. I worked with Alex over a period of more than 9 months after a string of executive search professionals who simply missed the mark. Not Alex."
​
"In no uncertain terms would I run — not walk — to partner with Alex again as I scale my new venture. And I'd be happy to share direct feedback with any potential client of his in the future."
Director, Data Sciences
"It’s rare to come across a standout like Alex, whom I had the pleasure of working with to find my most recent job opportunity. I was particularly impressed by Alex's ability to connect with me on a professional and personal level. He was genuine in his interest in placing me in a great job opportunity that was a good fit for both sides. Throughout the process Alex was always positive and upfront about what to expect and available to address my concerns or questions to the best of his ability. Anyone seeking a new opportunity would be very lucky to work with him!"
