About Healthcare Executive Search Firm Summit Talent Group

Summit Talent Group is a boutique search firm that offers national retained search services exclusively for the healthcare industry. Because our team has embraced white glove service and a proven six-step recruitment model, we work differently than healthcare recruiters and other contingency search firms.

Summit Talent Group takes on a limited number of search engagements. Doing this allows our leadership team to head the searches, unlike other firms that delegate search tasks to less experienced team members.  This also allows our team to fully devote itself to our clients, which includes conducting an in-depth discovery of our clients, their team, mission, strengths, and opportunities. By taking the time at the beginning of the engagement to truly get to know our clients, we are better equipped to complete the search quickly and effectively.

Another factor that makes Summit Talent Group one of the leading healthcare search firms is our complete commitment to transparency. Our team is there every step of the way to help guide you and your team. We prepare an engagement timeline that helps you to understand when to expect us to hit certain milestones as well as to prepare for the arrival of your new executive.

In situations where the vacancy is mission critical, Summit Talent Group offers interim services or subject matter experts who will be able to not merely float your organization while the search is conducted, but who are adroit leaders who will also assist with preparing your organization for its new leader.
