GeneCoda®

GeneCoda® is a boutique retained executive search and leadership advisory firm that works only in life sciences. It recruits senior leaders for companies at key moments such as funding rounds, clinical milestones, preparation for commercial launch and expansion, and it stresses that it is not a volume staffing agency.

What GeneCoda® offers

• Executive search — retained searches for vice president to C-suite roles across commercial, clinical, scientific, operational and finance functions, run with its own search process.
• Leadership advisory — helping founders and boards plan leadership structure, succession and the executive skills needed for the next stage.
• Talent intelligence — pay benchmarking, labour market analysis and a quarterly Life Sciences Pulse report to guide hiring and workforce planning.
• Insights — a monthly newsletter with updates and reports on the sector.

Who it works with

GeneCoda® partners with founders, chief executives and boards at biotech, pharmaceutical, medtech, diagnostics and life sciences tools companies. Earlier material says its focus is recruitment in the United States.
