Hiring into medical niches

Our dedicated Medical Devices executive recruitment team has a deep understanding of the sector including specialisms like cardiovascular, gastroenterology, neurology and orthopaedics, as well as geriatrics and paediatrics.  

When you need the right person to fill a niche role, our established open communication with our candidate database means we are able to reach out to individuals who might not be actively looking for a new job, but who will move for the right opportunity.

Like all of our recruitment services, we do this tirelessly and with a view to fill your vacancy as quickly as possible, without compromising on the calibre of the candidate. We carry out background checks and first-round interviews, so that you only need to make the final decision about who to hire.

A demanding future for Medical Devices

The change from CE marking to UKCA for healthcare providers in Great Britain comes at a time when the Medical Devices market as a whole is growing. Statista forecasts compound growth in the Medical Technology sector of more than 3.8% per year until at least 2027, with Medical Devices accounting for nearly 90% of the sector's value.

This growth, coupled with regulatory changes, has created a high demand for skilled professionals. Spencer Riley understands these challenges and specializes in finding top talent for the medical device industry.
