INDUSTRIES & SPECIALTIES

No one has more experience as search professionals in our areas of expertise than we do. Our consultants have become part of their industries and, because of this, they are well-respected as talent consultants. That's a result of building hundreds of relationships with industry leaders and top candidates - a key reason MRI Sales Consultants of Madison finds and attracts the best talent in your marketplace.

In addition to industry specialization, we focus on the Madison, Wisconsin business community and consult with a number of clients in the area who are in a variety of different industries. Each has the same need — to hire the best people available who will help grow their business. We have the experience and resources to meet those needs.

Sales & Marketing

The strongest core competency of our firm is in Sales and Marketing. Primary positions that we conduct searches for are territory sales, account manager, sales engineer, and inside sales positions. Primary management positions include district sales, regional sales, director of sales, and vice president of sales. Our search consultants bring over 50 years of sales and sales management experience which enables them to properly evaluate candidates and their accomplishments.

We focus on recruiting and completing search assignments for these types of positions in each of our industry specializations (biotechnology, scientific instrumentation, medical, medical professional liability) and in the general Madison, Wisconsin marketplace.

Madison, WI Job Market

Madison, Wisconsin enjoys a growing economy as a result of the health of established companies, the stability of the state university (University of Wisconsin) and state government, and the continued rise and business vitality of new businesses in the biotechnology, medical, and business services areas just to name a few. The Madison area attracts new residents yearly as a result of consistently high rankings on "Best Places to Live" lists by national publications. See more information about Madison on our Madison, WI page.

National companies looking for effective sales coverage in Wisconsin have found Madison to be centrally located from where the Milwaukee, Green Bay/Appleton, northern Illinois, and eastern Iowa markets are accessible by car, and overnight travel can be kept to a minimum.

Our Madison search practice has an excellent track record in finding and qualifying sales and marketing professionals for a broad variety of products and services. Searches in this area are conducted for both Madison area-based companies and for companies headquartered elsewhere.

Medical Sales

The medical industry has seen much growth and will continue to grow rapidly. A constant flow of new technology is always being introduced to the medical profession. New distribution channels and group purchasing groups have evolved over the past five years. Demographic data shows the long-term aging trend of the national population. The ever increasing need to hold down medical costs while maintaining the quality of medical treatment is of major importance.

All these factors act as catalysts for new medical devices and equipment companies using new technologies and spur on established companies who identify new markets for their existing technologies. This leads to many new staffing needs for quality sales talent in these companies. Companies especially need sales reps who can communicate and bring significant value to medical facilities.

At MRI Sales Consultants of Madison, we have particular industry expertise in recruiting for companies involved nationwide in such areas as critical care, surgery, urology, endoscopy, oncology, and radiology. We specialize in the recruitment and placement of sales representatives, account managers, regional and district sales managers, and Vice President or Director of Sales for growing medical device and equipment companies. We recruit from around the country as our clients have needs in most major and secondary metropolitan markets.

Medical Professional Liability

We have extensive experience in recruiting and placing top candidates in medical professional liability underwriting, claims, risk management, sales and marketing, and in medical director roles. We also place managers and other key executives of those disciplines. We recognize the differences among various sub-specialties within this industry, including institutional, physician, and allied healthcare, and the significant impact of geographical differences on companies. We work with people who have successful backgrounds in primary, excess, and reinsurance coverages. No other search firm can serve your needs better than we can in this industry.

Commercial Property & Casualty

We recruit and place individuals in a wide variety of positions at both national and regional insurance carriers within the commercial property and casualty industry. We have extensive experience filling underwriting, claims, loss control, and sales and marketing positions as well as the management positions that oversee these functions. Our clients include some of the largest national carriers and strong regional companies as well. We work in the primary, excess & surplus (E & S), and reinsurance markets.

Biotechnology/Scientific

Biotechnology, or Biotech, covers drug discovery, health sciences and a wide range of applications of the chemical sciences. Candidates range from scientists working on the bench to business development managers to strategic marketers. Market segments addressed encompass small molecule to large macromolecule applications. Many different types of companies are involved in the systemic processes that involve life and living organisms.

Some of the world's largest and smallest companies exist in the Biotech theatre. Therefore, the recruitment needs of these companies are varied, with the smaller enterprises requiring more rounded and possibly diverse skill sets from a candidate. Larger companies have more focused and specific needs where perhaps a key area or business activity requires further enhancement.

Besides recruiting on a national scale, we are uniquely able to recruit for biotechnology-based companies located in the Madison, Wisconsin area and surrounding regions.
