Our approach

Championing diversity, equity and inclusion

Our experience

The healthcare sector is undergoing rapid, complex changes, creating a demand for leaders who are diverse, partnership-driven, and data-focused to ensure its long-term sustainability. At Saxton Bampfylde, we are trusted advisers specialising in recruiting leaders through critically important Executive and Non-Executive healthcare appointments. Our expertise supports a broad range of organisations, including start-up healthtech companies, leading NHS Trusts, private healthcare providers, national institutes, and emerging NHS system leaders.

We understand that transformative leadership is essential to the success of the health and care ecosystem. Our commitment is to recruit and guide exceptional leaders who will shape and drive the future of healthcare. By partnering with organisations across the sector, we provide the trusted insight necessary to navigate change, foster innovation, and achieve strategic goals.

Our Clients

An inclusive approach to diversifying leadership

To ensure a healthy future, it’s crucial that leaders align with the needs of their people. In the health and care sector, we champion diversity and work closely with clients to strengthen diversity on Boards and Executive teams, though there is always more to be done. Through our award-winning REACH Programme, we are expanding our efforts in partnership with the NHS to support individuals from ethnically diverse communities in advancing their careers within health and care.
