Executive search: management and leadership roles

We fill roles for production managers, operations and sales directors, quality, procurement and project managers, and international management roles.

Why these roles are hard to fill

A manager who is leading a team successfully today has no reason to respond to job ads. They will consider a change when someone approaches them personally with an offer that makes sense for their next career step.

For international and strategic roles, the group of suitable people is also small. It is not enough to wait and see who responds. You need to know where these people work.

How we work

First, we map the companies and positions where suitable people work. We approach them personally. The client receives a shortlist with a comment on each candidate's motivation, availability and expectations.

  1. We translate your brief into the language of the market: the real content of the job, the team, the conditions and what makes the role interesting.
  2. We map the companies and positions where suitable people work today.
  3. We approach them directly, including people who are not actively looking for a job.
  4. We present a shortlist with a comment on each candidate: why they match, their motivation, availability and expectations.

We usually present the first candidates matched to your brief within 10 days of the moment we agree on the role profile together. A named consultant is responsible for each search.

Frequently asked questions

Is executive search the same as headhunting?

Basically, yes. Headhunting is the informal name for approaching candidates directly. Executive search is the form used for leadership and strategic roles. Sintera finds and approaches suitable people directly, instead of waiting for responses to job ads.

Do you also fill international roles?

Yes. For example, a Country Manager for India for a medical equipment manufacturer, or project, service and sales roles in Germany.

Do you have a role you cannot fill?

Send us the job description or a few sentences about the role. We will get back to you and suggest how to approach it.
