Chris Schipper

Partner

Chris joined True from ECA Partners, where he was a sr. managing director driving both permanent and interim search placements within Healthcare and private equity / PE-backed businesses.

At True, he has continued this focus on healthcare and private equity, specializing in revenue generation and go-to-market roles.

Prior to his time in search, Chris worked in executive roles in multiple high-growth venture-backed organizations, as well as in management consulting roles with Bain & Company and the Boston Consulting Group.

Chris earned his Master of Arts degree from Harvard Business School and Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics from Washington University in St. Louis. While a nomad growing up (he has lived in over 10 cities), he most recently identifies as a New Yorker, although following the birth of his first child will soon be moving close to family in the midwest.
