Sector
CDMO Executive Search & Recruitment
The global CDMO sector is in the middle of a structural reset. Post-pandemic capacity expansion has collided with geopolitical fragmentation (BIOSECURE Act, sovereign supply chains), GLP-1 demand shocks, ADC complexity requirements, private-equity exit pressure, and a talent market that cannot keep pace with facility build-outs. ProGen Search is a specialist CDMO executive search firm with deep experience supporting contract development and manufacturing organisations of all sizes, from early-stage providers building out GMP infrastructure to multinational manufacturing networks operating across biologics, small molecule, peptide, viral vector, and radiopharmaceutical modalities.
