Executive Search & Leadership Placement
Retained C-suite and VP-level search for Health-Tech, Healthcare IT, and Enterprise AI/Technology organizations. We place leaders who can actually deliver transformation.
Overview
BRAMKAS delivers retained executive search for organizations that cannot afford to get a leadership hire wrong. Our methodology combines structured competency mapping, blind-sourcing to reduce bias, and rigorous reference validation.
We specialize in Health-Tech, Healthcare IT, and Enterprise AI/Technology — sectors where the intersection of clinical, technical, and business judgment is non-negotiable in a senior leader.
Every search is led by a senior partner, not handed off to a junior recruiter. We commit to an exclusive engagement and work milestone-to-milestone until you have an accepted offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
What roles do you specialize in?
CTO, CDO, CISO, VP Engineering, VP AI/ML, VP Clinical Informatics, VP Data Science, Head of Product, and Chief Product Officer roles in Health-Tech, Healthcare IT, and Enterprise AI/Technology organizations.
How is retained search different from contingency recruiting?
Retained search means we are exclusively committed to your search and paid in milestones. Contingency firms submit candidates speculatively — which creates incentives to move fast rather than move right. For senior roles, retained is the appropriate model.
How long does an executive search take?
A well-run retained search typically takes 10–14 weeks from kickoff to accepted offer.
What is your guarantee policy?
We provide a 90-day replacement guarantee. If the placed executive leaves or is terminated for performance within 90 days of start, we conduct a replacement search at no additional fee.
