WHY RAW SELECTION

ArchiMed is located in Lyon, France, and the firm aimed to hire a profile with multiple language skills, which was the biggest challenge seen during this search. ArchiMed also wanted someone skilled in Healthcare or Life Sciences and M&A, which was also challenging to find.
The private equity firm is incredibly fast-growing, and we have worked on multiple successful searches with ArchiMed in the past to aid this growth.
To overcome these challenges, we mapped out across Western Europe’s major cities of investment banking and management consulting firms that operate in the Healthcare or Life Sciences sectors.
Raw Selection followed our 15 steps to fill a search process to complete this vacancy successfully.

The only part of this search that was surprising to Raw Selection was the huge interest in Management Consulting profiles that are aiming to get into the private equity industry.
Overall, this search for ArchiMed was successful, as we secured an excellent and experienced candidate and they are already located in Lyon, which is a huge benefit to ArchiMed.

Since this search, Raw Selection has been further retained on more investment positions and investor relations positions for ArchiMed, and we are looking forward to filling these roles with outstanding candidates too.

He was able to find a fit which I would not have expected at first, but which now appears to me as both very relevant and natural. Communication with him has always been pleasant, easy, and straightforward. I warmly recommend working with him!”
