About us

Best Talent was founded in July 2003 by Helle Jørnung. With 17 years of experience in the Pharma industry, Helle held international executive roles within management and marketing—laying the foundation for a natural specialization in Life Sciences.

In 2006, Janne Kofoed joined as Managing Partner. She brings extensive international experience within Supply Chain Management, Production, and Project Management. In her role as European Business Manager, Janne was responsible for international sales, development, and production planning, leading a team of 120 employees as well as key subcontractors.

Today, Best Talent specializes in Executive Search and specialist recruitment within Life Sciences, including Pharma, Biotech, MedTech, Engineering, and Tech.

Every assignment is led by a dedicated partner or consultant with deep industry expertise, ensuring a consistent, high-quality process from start to finish—supported by our experienced Search team.

Our senior professionals combine strong academic backgrounds with extensive experience in management, strategy, and business development. This enables us to understand both our clients’ needs and the true potential of each candidate.

Through targeted and proven search methods, we identify and attract C-level executives and top-tier talent. Supported by a strong network and a specialized Talent Bank, our ambition is clear: to be the leading provider of human capital within Life Sciences—and the preferred partner for companies seeking exceptional people.
