Company Description
comtract Kommunikations- und Personalberatung is a specialist recruitment and advisory boutique founded in 1999 in Heidelberg and expanded in 2002 with an office presence in Cologne. Co‑founded and led by Monika Schammas and Udo Lahm, the firm focuses exclusively on communications talent, supporting companies, organizations, and PR agencies with the search and selection of professionals across corporate communications, public relations, marketing communication, investor relations, social media, internal communication and change communications, corporate publishing, CSR, editorial, public affairs, and related disciplines. comtract delivers permanent and interim appointments from executive level to manager, advisor, and referent roles, using targeted direct search, a 20‑year curated network, structured interviewing, shortlist curation, and hands‑on support through client interviews and decisions. The team also advises on compensation and attractive package design and, when required, manages advertising copy and channel selection, application screening, reference checks, and portfolio reviews. Beyond search, comtract provides outplacement and newplacement to guide communications leaders through career transitions, including market alignment, materials optimization, employer targeting, interview preparation, and negotiation coaching, with the option of proactive outreach to potential employers. To accelerate success in new roles, the firm offers onboarding support tailored to role expectations, team dynamics, stakeholder mapping, culture analysis, and risk identification. As certified systemic business coaches, the partners deliver individual and team coaching that strengthens leadership, communication effectiveness, conflict resolution, and performance, and they facilitate change processes through workshops and team interventions. Their strategic advisory work supports communications leaders with strategy and positioning, organizational design, process optimization, best‑practice research, PR competitive analyses, budgeting, and agency pitch preparation and selection. comtract’s consulting ethos emphasizes confidentiality, fairness, and long‑term partnership: client identities and candidate data are handled with strict discretion, and searches are conducted with rigor rather than CV forwarding.
