The Winchester Group, Washington DC
Principal
The Winchester Group is a contingent firm that is focused on the placement
of full-time consultants with many of the regional and national consulting
firms as PWC, CSC, Deloitte and Oliver Wyman which are offering advisory
services into the life sciences, payer/provider and occasionally financial
sectors.
Our candidates are consultants offering their clients strategic solutions
such as Business Management, M&A, Product Development, Marketing, Supply
Chain and IT Transformation. We tend to place at the manager/senior manger,
director levels with an occasional partner/rainmaker.
I partner with clients to develop efficient hiring processes, define
position requirements, screen potential candidates and assists with the
final negotiations, while assisting firms attract creative talent needed to
identify and engage their clients. <www.linkedin.com/pub/mel-

With over eighteen years of external and internal consulting experience, I
have gained a deep understanding of the fundamental role that executive
search may contribute to a firm's human element and how this transfers into
an organizational success.
Sixty-five percent of The Winchester Groups projects are generated from
repeat corporate clients and candidates who value Mel's competitive
intelligence and understanding of the marketplace.
