Dukemed

Dukemed is an executive search firm that specialises in MedTech hiring. It is based in Sydney and was founded by Richard Duke, who has 25 years of experience in MedTech recruitment, including building out medical device divisions in global firms and local distribution networks.

The firm supports Sales, Marketing, Clinical and Leadership roles. Its sector coverage includes orthopaedics and spine, ophthalmology and vision care, medical technology and capital equipment, and devices and consumables. It works on retained mandates and commissioned Talent Intelligence projects, mapping talent proactively and testing assumptions about talent availability, compensation, timing and role scope before a search goes live.

Dukemed also offers market intelligence tools, including a vacancy difficulty grading questionnaire for hiring leaders and a market positioning scorecard for MedTech professionals. It publishes two free email newsletters, one on retained-search demand signals, pay signals and hiring patterns across Australian MedTech, and one on career and positioning signals.
