Julie Lucey

Julie Lucey serves as Vice President of the Central Region for Nationwide Search Group, LLC. In total, she brings more than 15 years of experience as a medical and pharmaceutical sales representative, working for start-ups and Fortune 500 organizations including Johnson and Johnson and GlaxoSmithKline. This first-hand experience enhances her recruiting capabilities for both clients and candidates.

Julie works with clients in both the medical and pharmaceutical industries, executing searches for sales, sales management, marketing and clinical support professionals. She has successfully completed searches for Fortune 500 companies, as well as start-up medical companies just entering the marketplace. In 2007, she partnered with a small medical company to revitalize an existing sales force, and was instrumental in helping a pre-IPO start-up build a new sales staff from the ground up.

Recognized as a top-producing sales representative herself, and the recipient of several performance awards, Ms. Lucey conveys tenacity, passion, integrity, and an insider's perspective in her searches. Julie's clients find a partner who is serious about developing a longstanding relationship and a thorough understanding of their business culture. Only after carefully listening to their needs and building a profile to ensure a successful match does she execute a search to locate prime talent. On the candidate side, Ms. Lucey is very proactive in "hunting" and qualifying talent. She also maintains a large database and active network from which to source potential applicants. Having personally experienced the pitfalls of less-than-stellar recruitment practices, Julie conducts her business with courtesy, professionalism, and a high degree of integrity.

Julie graduated with honors from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in Dietetics. She and her husband spend much of their free time accompanying their daughter to national and international Irish dance competitions.
