Healthcare Executive

What Healthcare Executive does

Ortho Consulting Group Ltd, operating under the trade name Healthcare Executive, is a UK-based B2B consulting firm headquartered in Newbury, Berkshire, that specializes exclusively in the orthopaedic, spine, and broader medical device industry. The firm positions itself as a 'global expansion partner' for manufacturers, helping SMEs, start-ups, and established medtech companies build and strengthen their international sales channels through a network of more than 4,000 verified global distributors accumulated over eleven years of practice.

The firm's offering spans eleven discrete service lines delivered on a professional services revenue model: Mergers and Acquisitions advisory, Investment Support, Distributor Management, Distributor Search, Executive Search, NED (Non-Executive Director) Search, Quality and Regulatory (including UK Responsible Person appointment), Product Management, Legal Support, Marketing, and Research. Distribution is delivered through enterprise direct sales, channel/reseller engagement via the verified distributor network, and a self-serve mobile application called OrthoCG, available on iOS and Android, which surfaces industry news, distribution opportunities, and senior leadership vacancies. The underlying technology stack is light: the mobile app is a domain-specialized content product, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, APIs, SDKs, or proprietary platform architecture beyond standard mobile tooling.

The customer base is verticalized and segment-described (orthopaedic manufacturers, spine companies, broader medical device firms, and SMEs/start-ups) rather than logo-disclosed, with no pricing publicly stated and revenue unconfirmed. Ortho Consulting Group is a privately held, founder/management-owned entity with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or PE/VC backing, operating globally from a single English-registered headquarters.
