360 Executive Search Consultant – Remote

Company Overview

Our client is a rapidly expanding, highly successful, boutique executive search firm specialising in the life sciences sector, with organisations across the US.

Following and building upon the success of 2025,  this firm is entering a significant new growth phase and investing in senior commercial talent to scale its US presence. This growth is deliberate and controlled—focused on quality, retained work, and long-term client partnerships rather than volume.

The firm is known for delivering high-quality retained search solutions, operating with credibility at board and C-suite level, and giving experienced consultants genuine ownership over their markets. For those coming from larger, more hierarchical search firms, this platform offers a chance to operate with autonomy, commericality, visibility and real influence.

This is a high-performance environment built for senior recruiters who want to own relationships, lead from the front, and be rewarded directly for their contribution—without layers of internal politics or artificial limits.

The Role and Responsibilities – 360 Executive Search Recruiter

This role is designed for an experienced executive search professional who wants full 360 ownership of their desk and the freedom to build a life sciences market without internal barriers.

As a 360 Executive Search Recruiter, you will take responsibility for developing, winning and delivering retained and senior-level search assignments within a defined US life sciences vertical, combining hands-on execution with long-term client development.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading business development efforts within your life sciences vertical with full autonomy
• Winning, managing, and delivering senior and retained executive search assignments
• Owning end-to-end search delivery from pitch through placement
• Building long-term, trusted client partnerships at senior leadership and investor level
• Operating as a true consultative client partner and advisor rather than a transactional recruiter
• Developing deep sector expertise and a strong personal brand within your niche
• Managing your own pipeline, forecasting, and commercial performance
• Working in an environment and collaborating with other high performers

This is a hands-on billing role for someone who enjoys controlling their own market, delivering at senior level, and seeing a direct link between effort, performance, and reward.

Skills and Qualifications Needed to Be Successful

This opportunity is best suited to someone who brings:

• Strong 360 recruitment or executive search experience, ideally within life sciences
• A consistent track record of billing at senior or retained level
• Experience building or growing a desk, vertical, or client base
• Confidence operating independently while contributing to a collaborative senior team
• Strong commercial acumen, negotiation skills, and stakeholder management capability
• A consultative, credible style suited to board-level and senior leadership mandates
• An ambitious, resilient mindset and comfort operating in a performance-driven environment

Whether you come from a global executive search firm, a boutique search house, or a specialist recruitment business, this role rewards quality, ownership, and commercial maturity.

Value Proposition

• Strong base salary aligned with senior-level experience
• Transparent and uncapped commission structure with significant earning potential
• Incentive trips and performance-based rewards
• Genuine autonomy to shape and grow a US life sciences vertical
• High-quality retained search infrastructure and delivery tools
• Strong operational support without micromanagement
• A culture grounded in trust, accountability, and performance
• High visibility within a firm entering a major US growth phase

Your performance, relationships, and commercial impact will directly influence the direction and success of the business.

The Opportunity

If you are a senior executive search consultant or recruiter currently operating within a large, established firm – and feeling constrained by structure, limited ownership, or capped progression – this role offers a platform to run your own market, bill at a senior level, and build a long term career with progression directly aligned to your success.
