Our executive search process
Needs analysis
We begin with a thorough needs analysis, in which we work with you to define the position to be filled, the specific responsibilities, and the strategic goals. We place particular emphasis on understanding whether this involves filling an existing or a new position, and whether this recruitment is intended to specifically contribute to transformation or change within the company.
Target group research
In the next step, we identify the relevant candidate markets. Alongside the obvious industries and networks, we also consider alternative markets that may seem unusual at first glance but, on closer inspection, share many similarities and parallels with your company.
Direct approach & selection
We approach selected top talent in a targeted, individual way to spark interest in the vacancy. In doing so, we use creative and unconventional recruiting methods that go beyond classic headhunting approaches, allowing us to also reach candidates who are not currently actively job-seeking.
Cultural fit & aptitude assessment
In addition to professional qualifications, we carefully assess whether the candidate's values, working style, and personality fit your corporate culture. Here, we rely on well-founded aptitude assessment methods to ensure long-term success.
Onboarding and integration
After a successful placement, we continue to support you and your new executive during the onboarding phase. Through regular follow-up conversations, we ensure that the integration goes smoothly and that the desired contribution to strategy, transformation, or special situations is achieved sustainably.
