A poorly recruited pharmaceutical sales director delays the launch of your products and weakens your relationships with KOLs. Archetype has been recruiting Sales, Marketing and Management talent in the Belgian pharma industry for 30 years.
Recruitment challenges in the pharmaceutical industry
The Belgian pharmaceutical industry — one of the most dynamic in Europe — faces fierce competition to attract high-level sales and marketing profiles. Recruiting a Head of Sales or a Marketing Director capable of navigating strict regulations, relationships with KOLs and revenue targets requires sharp expertise. Every month without the right profile delays your time to market and gives ground to your competitors.
