What I appreciate most about Julie Lorentz is her exceptionally deep knowledge of the medical device sector. We operate in a complex field, evolving daily, where major structural and demanding reforms are being implemented – and she has a thorough understanding of these highly specific, bi- or tri-disciplinary roles. She is also personable, with an excellent ability to connect with people, making her a real pleasure to work with. Be warned, however: she is tenacious and determined, and will not let go until she has found a solution to your challenge.

Julie has become a trusted recruitment partner within six months. Initially, she made herself known without being overbearing. When I had an urgent interim management need, she mobilised quickly, understood my requirements and put forward candidates who matched them perfectly. She then maintained discreet but effective follow-up. I have since entrusted her with further assignments, all of which have been successfully concluded. I recommend Julie for her warmth, professionalism and her ability to quickly identify what her clients need.
