Closing leadership gaps with Executive Search
Executive search is a specialized recruitment service aimed at identifying and recruiting top-level executives and senior management professionals. Companies often turn to these services when faced with critical leadership vacancies. Particularly in the industrial sector, where leadership intricacies are pronounced, executive search becomes indispensable. From filling C-level positions such as CEOs, CFOs, and COOs to sourcing capable plant managers, executive search services step in when companies seek experienced managers with strong leadership skills and industry expertise to lead their organizations effectively.
Our approach
Industry Insights & Regional Expertise
With a 10-year track record in executive search, we recognize that successful talent acquisition requires more than just a talent pool. As business leaders ourselves, we bring valuable insights and strategic approach to the table. Our clients benefit from our expertise in the industrial sector and in-depth understanding of the CEE and DACH region. We specialize in addressing the needs of industrial companies seeking proficient leaders, whether it is a seasoned CEO to steer a strategic direction or a capable plant manager to optimize operations.
Expertise in the industrial sector
At Wesconi, we are dedicated to industrial operations. We understand the industry trends, the unique challenges that companies in this sector encounter, and also the qualities required for leadership positions in the industrial environment. This expertise allows us to identify candidates who not only possess the requisite leadership skills but also understand the nuances of the manufacturing landscape.
Network of industrial leaders
Our extensive network is rich with top-notch professionals who’ve already made a mark in the industrial sector. We don’t just scout for candidates; we tap into our connections to identify managers who have a proven track record of success in industrial environments. This network allows us to uncover leaders who’ve already demonstrated their ability to drive efficiency, innovation, and growth within the industrial landscape.
Extensive CEE and DACH reach
Our network extends across the CEE region (Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia) and the German-speaking DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). We understand the dynamics influencing businesses in these regions. We facilitate the exchange of expertise by providing our services in both directions – providing executive search solutions for mother companies from the DACH region with operations in the CEE region and vice versa.
Customized solutions
We recognize that each company has its own unique culture, challenges, and goals. That’s why we take a tailored approach to our executive search process. Our consultants work closely with your team to gain an in-depth understanding of your organization’s requirements and values. This collaborative approach ensures that we present candidates who not only possess the necessary qualifications but also align with your company’s vision.
Holistic approach
At Wesconi, we have a holistic understanding of what makes a successful industrial leader. It’s not just about having leadership skills; it’s about knowing how to optimize processes, navigate complexities, and leverage technology to enhance productivity. Our assessment process goes beyond surface qualifications to deeply evaluate how candidates’ experience aligns with the unique demands of your company. This ensures that the managers we present possess the nuanced expertise needed to thrive in your company setting.
