“Spotting executive brilliance ahead of the crowd, we unveil tomorrow’s leaders today.”

– Corinne Klajda

Who we are

We are a team of professional and highly skilled executive search consultants. For the past twenty seven years, clients of local and international markets, have trusted us with their talent management and executive search strategies. Today we can take pride in our results: a short list of clients and more than 78% per cent of our business coming from existing clients. Being a member of the AESC, the Association of Executive Search Consultants, we provide our clients with a guarantee to work with respect for confidentiality and the highest ethical standards.

Proudly local with a European and global perspective

Being part of the AltoPartners network means that our search for your next leader knows no limits.

How we work

“We take our moral responsibility to make the candidate aware of all possible scenarios & importance of his/her decision – long and short term – very seriously.”

– Corinne Klajda

We ask the right questions to understand, who we are looking for and why.
We listen, analyse and advise.
We collaborate – locally and globally – to find the best solution for you.
We make it our business to understand your industry.
We are highly responsive – our updates find you on time.

Our promise to clients: You will never be just a number.

Our concise client base is geared toward maximum attention, efficiency and focused-on service. We strive for efficient search strategies and win-win closings for clients and candidates. This is a strong contribution to building trust – the currency we value most.

Our promise to candidates: You can rely on our advice.

We respect your experience, your dreams and goals. We will never recommend a position or an organisation, that is not a good fit for you.

The services we offer

  • Executive search – key leadership appointments around the corner, next door, overseas and across continents.
  • Leadership services – CXO coaching and board facilitation; board assessment and evaluation.
  • Market Intelligence and benchmarking – helping clients to attract and retain top skills.

“An extremely rewarding scenario for us is when the candidate becomes a client. Then we have the confidence that we are doing it right.”

– Corinne Klajda
