International Executive Search & Talent Acquisition 

At Akens Nordburg, we support companies from the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) and Spain in attracting and hiring qualified professionals and executives for strategic positions.


Our recruiting approach is methodological, targeted and cross-border, ensuring access to both active and passive talent.

Unser Recruiting-Prozess

Briefing, Profile Analysis & Requirements Definition

Every search begins with an in-depth analysis of the client’s business, organizational structure and position profile. We identify key requirements, success factors and cultural context to ensure a precise alignment between the company and potential candidates.

Targeted Attraction Strategy

We design tailored job advertisements and select the most effective publication and communication channels to address the right candidate segments.
To achieve full market coverage, this is complemented by focused direct search activities aimed at passive candidates.

Direct search & Market Mapping

For highly specialized or senior roles, we implement structured direct search campaigns, supported by market intelligence and a curated network built over years of experience in DACH and Spain.

Candidate Assessment & Shortlisting

All applications and identified candidates undergo structured screening, competency-based interviews, and technical as well as cultural fit assessments. We provide clients with a qualified shortlist of candidates who meet the professional, linguistic and intercultural requirements of the role.
