Executive Search in the Stuttgart region
Executive search for managing directors and leadership roles in the automotive and supplier industry and in mid-sized industrial companies. Personal direct approach instead of job advertisements.

An executive market in upheaval
The Stuttgart region is shaped by carmakers and their suppliers, by machinery and plant engineering and by many owner-managed mid-sized companies. The shift to electric mobility and software is changing the kind of leadership these companies need.
The brief is often for people who can lead an existing organisation through change. They usually hold secure positions and do not leave them of their own accord. That is exactly where direct search comes in.
Exclusive direct search
I identify and reach the people who are not actively looking, in the visible and the hidden job market.
A precise fit
No matching against a database, but a search grid tailored to your requirements.
Transparent terms
I work on a retainer basis, as is usual in executive search. We discuss the details openly in the first conversation.
Typical mandates
When companies in the Stuttgart region contact me
Suppliers in transition
Suppliers are moving from combustion technology to new drive systems, electronics and software. That calls for managing directors and technical heads who change portfolio and organisation at the same time.
Plant management and operations
When production is relocated, consolidated or built up, the plant manager decides the pace and how well the workforce goes along.
SMEs competing with corporations
Owner-managed companies compete with large manufacturers for the same people. They win with responsibility, closeness and short decision paths.
The other side of the table
The perspective of a former HR director
I know the client's side
For more than 15 years I was an HR director myself. I know what a management team really needs from a search consultant.
I assess what matters after signing
Appointments rarely fail because of the CV, but because of leadership, culture and expectations. That is exactly what I test.
I run every mandate myself
From the first conversation to the signed contract, I am your only point of contact.
