Westwood & Wilshire

Westwood & Wilshire is a retained executive search and recruiting firm focused on life sciences, healthcare, medtech, healthtech, and technology companies. The firm works primarily with venture-backed startups, growth-stage businesses, and some larger commercial organizations to place C-suite and other senior leaders. Its biotech practice emphasizes leadership recruitment for companies developing breakthrough science, rather than developing therapeutics itself. The company appears to be an active private business founded in 2003 and headquartered in Los Angeles, California. It should be classified as a healthcare-adjacent professional services company rather than a drug developer, biotech platform company, or pharmaceutical manufacturer.
