SAN DIEGO, Nov. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Calibre One, a leading global executive search boutique specializing in building leadership teams for innovators, entrepreneurs and companies undergoing technology or digital transformation, has appointed industry veteran Tom Murphy as partner. Working from the company’s San Diego office, Murphy bolsters Calibre One’s Southern California presence as the company continues to expand its healthcare and life sciences practice.

Murphy will focus his practice on recruiting for vice president to c-suite and above to board of director positions in such industries as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, devices, diagnostics, instrumentation, tools, services, genetics, genomics, proteomics, contract manufacturing and contract research.

His level of knowledge about the people, the companies and San Diego’s important role in life sciences is truly unsurpassed. He’s an excellent complement to our already very successful team.”

With multiple years of leadership building management teams for the healthcare and life sciences sector, Murphy has spent decades working with companies pioneering life changing technologies, cures, therapies and tools advancing the cause of healthcare.

After entering the search industry at the start of his career, Murphy joined Russell Reynolds’ San Diego office.

Returning to the retained search sector, Murphy has since served as a partner at three executive search firms and ran the biosciences practice for two of those firms building a wide range of management teams on the forefront of innovation.

Murphy graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science from University of California, Berkeley.

A La Jolla native, Murphy enjoys community non-profits and philanthropic organizations.
