Executive search for transport technology
Executive search for managing directors and decision-makers in transport technology. A personal direct approach for manufacturers, suppliers and system integrators in rail, road and control technology.
Long project cycles, high requirements
Rolling stock, signalling and control technology, transport infrastructure and intelligent transport systems: transport technology is shaped by long project durations, public clients and high requirements for safety and approval. At the same time, digitalisation is changing products, operations and business models.
For leadership this means: steering large projects on time and on budget, negotiating with clients and authorities as equals, and keeping engineering teams in the competition for talent.
What this means for your appointment
01
Project and contract expertise
I look for executives who have been responsible for large projects with public and private clients, from tender to acceptance.
02
Safety and approval
The roles call for people for whom standards, approval procedures and safety culture are a natural part of leadership.
03
Digitalising the installed base
For control and signalling technology, it pays to look at profiles who have brought software and system integration into long-lived installations.
Typical positions
I work across industries, with roots in manufacturing. Every appointment starts with your company’s situation.
- Managing director and site management
- Project and programme management
- Technical management, engineering and system integration
- Sales and business development
- Quality, approval and safety
- Head of finance
