EXECUTIVE SEARCH //
FILLING SENIOR MANAGEMENT POSITIONS

If you are looking for a first-class executive for your company, we may be the right consulting partner. We have plenty of expertise and experience, but also access to good candidates. Our projects range from Director Operations to Managing Director Sales and Business Unit Manager to CFO.

We ourselves attach great importance to the convincing quality of our candidates and combine proven search systems with modern technology. As a result, we achieve speedy processing and regularly need only 4-6 weeks from briefing to the presentation of candidates


BOARD CONSULTING //
ORGANIZATION AND COMPOSITION OF SUPERVISORY BOARDS AND ADVISORY BOARDS

We also use our market knowledge and executive search expertise to find and assess candidates for advisory and supervisory boards. We are constantly working on a pool of candidates who are not only interested in a mandate, but can also offer valuable experience. This enables us to make suggestions timely when the need arises.

The range of clients goes from medium-sized companies with a turnover of perhaps EUR 50 million, that are setting up an advisory board for the first time, to SDAX and MDAX companies. Private equity firms and investment companies also make use of our services.
