Furst Group is in its fourth decade of providing executive search and consulting services for the healthcare industry. Our experience in evaluating talent, leadership, and culture helps companies align their organizations to execute their strategic initiatives. Our relationships, processes, and attention to details put a premium on service excellence and client satisfaction.
Furst Group is ranked as a Top 10 executive search firm by Modern Healthcare and one of “America's Best Executive Search Firms” by Forbes. We partner with many of the premier healthcare organizations in the world, from providers and payers to life-science companies and private equity/venture capital firms. We align talent acquisition strategies with the mission, culture and future growth needs of our clients, allowing them to attract, develop and retain high-performing leaders.
While our roots are in managed care, we continue to be one of the nation's leading executive search partners to health systems, hospitals, academic medical centers, post-acute and hospice and palliative care facilities. Our works with insurers stretches back to the dawn of the HMO era, yet we also team with life science, pharmaceutical and medical device companies.
Nonetheless, as payers and providers continue to intersect and affiliate, our deep understanding of all facets of delivering and financing care allows us to advise our partners with experience and wisdom.
As our clients began to express a need for a holistic view of talent and leadership, we spun off our leadership-consulting service line in 2015 as a full-fledged company called NuBrick Partners.

The opportunities and challenges in healthcare have never been greater than they are today.; That is why the acquisition, development, and retention of talent have never been more important. There is no such thing as a perfect candidate, but our job is to make sure we find the most perfect fit – the best candidate for the role, your culture, and your organization.
The business of healthcare requires specialists; the business of people requires specialists too. Very few executive search firms specialize in healthcare – an industry that is rapidly changing on an almost daily basis – like Furst Group. However, executive search is more than simply filling an opening. Adding a new executive requires a thorough understanding of the performance and dynamics of your leadership team. One new addition will clearly impact the entire team.
Because we understand your business, we can help you assess the overall fit of the executive in your culture. We work to align our client’s talent strategy with its business strategy. We focus on blending new talent with the leadership team to create a maximum impact on your organization.
Our record of finding, assessing, and developing optimal talent for our clients is one that we are proud to compare with anyone. Our clients trust our insight on all facets of organizational leadership – from the initial creation of a position to reporting structures, core competencies, and compensation. We are experienced in providing real-time market information as well as generating greater corporate self-awareness of leadership gaps and strengths to help our clients make informed decisions related to the acquisition, alignment, and assessment of leadership talent.
