John Ruhmann, Founder & CEO of Reflexion Partners

John Ruhmann

Founder & CEO

With a 30-year career in executive search that began by collaborating with flagship and emerging companies in life sciences, John has also established a proven track record in large-scale manufacturing, engineering, and construction industries. Under his leadership, he built two firms and played a pivotal role in establishing and growing one of the original life sciences search firms as the Managing Director. John's successful placement of numerous C-suite executives is noteworthy, but his focus extends beyond Senior Management. He enjoys building companies or departments, often placing leadership and then assisting in team building. His experience ranges from constructing teams in venture-backed startups to Fortune 500 companies nationwide. John approaches each project with the same commitment, dedication, and process expected from venture-backed boards in Silicon Valley, Boston, and other technology incubation hubs, bringing that experience to all his clients, regardless of industry, geography, or position level.
