Hesse
Executive Search in Hesse
Executive search for managing directors and decision-makers in industry, logistics, pharmaceuticals and chemicals and the Hessian Mittelstand, in the Rhine-Main region and in central and northern Hesse.

Between financial centre and Mittelstand
Hesse is shaped by the Frankfurt financial centre, by the airport as a logistics hub, by pharmaceuticals and chemicals and by industrial mid-sized companies based mainly in central and northern Hesse.
In the Rhine-Main region, industrial companies compete with banks, consultancies and corporate headquarters for the same executives. Beyond it the challenge is different: winning experienced managers for a location outside the metropolis.
What this means for your appointment
01
Considering profiles from other sectors
For commercial roles in particular, it pays to look beyond your own industry.
02
Including northern and central Hesse
I search specifically for people with ties to the region.
03
Staying confidential
In a succession or realignment, the market only learns of it when you want it to.
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 Hesse contact me
CFO and finance leadership
Proximity to the financial centre makes Hesse attractive for finance executives. Industrial companies need finance profiles that understand operations.
Leadership in pharma, chemicals and logistics
Regulated and internationally connected industries need leaders who combine structure, compliance and growth.
Industry in Central and Northern Hesse
Many industrial companies are located outside the Rhine-Main area. For them, it pays to search the region and the neighbouring states.
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.

FAQ
Executive search in Hesse: frequently asked questions
Which positions do you fill in Hesse?
Managing directors, finance directors and CFOs, technical management and sales. From the Rhine-Main area to Central and Northern Hesse.
Can finance profiles from banking move into industry?
Sometimes. What matters is whether someone wants to and can run an operating business. I test that in conversation with concrete situations, not on the CV.
Do you only work in Hesse?
No. I search across Germany. We define the search area for each position together.
What does a search cost?
I work on a retainer basis, as is usual in executive search. The amount depends on the position and the effort; we discuss the details openly in the first conversation.
