Executive Search in Mannheim
Executive search for managing directors and decision-makers in chemicals, industry, software and the Mittelstand of the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region.

One region, three states
Mannheim is the centre of the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region, which spans Baden-Württemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate and Hesse. Chemicals, machinery and vehicle manufacturing, software and healthcare shape the region.
The region is economically strong, but also very transparent for executives: those who move often move just a few kilometres. A confidential approach is therefore especially important.
