We would be pleased to demonstrate to SIFEM why Wirz & Partners has for years been the preferred Executive Search partner for board mandates, the federal administration, and the financial industry.
We understand our clients
As one of the few executive search firms, we have maintained for many years a clear focus on board and executive management mandates in both the public sector and the financial industry in Switzerland. We are economists and business professionals with backgrounds in banking and consulting. We bring longstanding experience and deep understanding of the public sector, along with explicit expertise in development aid and its financing.
Our clients are national and international companies and organizations headquartered in the DACH region or with a strong presence in the EMEA region. We serve them locally while recruiting internationally.
The value for you as our client is reflected in the following aspects:
-
Quality & access to top talent – we are perceived as highly relevant by the target market, as we are the brand for board and C-level recruiting.
-
Speed – we know the target companies and the ideal profiles, which enables us to deliver faster results.
-
Cultural understanding – we know the public sector. The partners responsible for searches have a proven senior management track record, and for years we have been successfully recruiting mandates in governmental environments.
We support you locally and remain your partner not only throughout the recruitment process but also beyond.
