About Proxima
We started Proxima in 2022 because we'd hired , and been hired by , every kind of search firm, and concluded the industry needed one designed specifically for the way MedTech and HealthTech companies actually grow.
Why we exist
The companies redefining cardiac care, oncology diagnostics, surgical robotics and AI-native imaging share one thing: leadership teams that combine deep clinical literacy with commercial precision. That blend is rare.
Proxima exists to find it , and to do so in the regulated, multi-stakeholder, long-cycle environments where most search firms struggle. We are domain specialists. We will never recruit for sectors we don't live in.
