1. Confidential intake

A 45–60 minute conversation about your situation, constraints, and what “a good next role” must include. No materials leave our side without your agreement.

2. Written proposal

If there is a fit, you receive a short mandate outline: scope, rhythm of sessions, fees, and what sits outside the engagement. You decide before any work begins.

3. Positioning and market map

We lock your narrative and build a target landscape — employers, holdings, and search partners who actually place people at your level in Germany.

4. Active search counsel

Weekly or fortnightly sessions guide outreach, interview prep, and recovery after near-misses. You remain the face of every conversation.

5. Offer and close

When interest turns into paper, we shift to package review and negotiation posture, then wind down the mandate once you sign or choose to pause.

Not every client needs the full mandate. Some begin with positioning alone or book interview preparation when a shortlist invitation arrives. We will say so plainly.
