MettleSearch

MettleSearch, also known as MTL Search, is a no nonsense talent advisory and global headhunting boutique under MTL Holding UG based in Berlin, founded in 2016. The firm specializes in solving complex and confidential hiring challenges for senior and specialist roles across core corporate and technology functions. Operating globally and across industries including technology, financial services, and retail, MettleSearch blends world class direct search with pragmatic talent advisory and actionable talent intelligence. Its Search practice focuses on active sourcing, confidential outreach, candidate mapping, introductions, rigorous screening, structured assessments, and offer negotiation to secure strategically important hires. The Advisory practice provides fractional talent leadership, including an in house Head of Talent on an interim or part time basis, to design talent strategy, build assessment frameworks, run corporate culture workshops, and set up hiring infrastructure such as an ATS or HRS. The Intel practice delivers market analysis, talent mapping, and talent assessments to help clients understand competitive landscapes and make data led decisions even before a role is opened. Engagement models are flexible and transparent: a predictable monthly retainer (starting at EUR 3,900 with an annual subscription), an hourly model for project based work (from EUR 150 per hour subject to prepayment thresholds), and a commission based option at 25 percent per hire as part of a hybrid retainer setup. Startups and SMEs use MettleSearch as an on demand fractional TA team, while larger enterprises rely on the firm to augment in house TA during peak workloads or for discreet searches. The process is optimized for speed, creativity, and precision, with a typical first viable candidate profile presented within 7 days, and with continuous tracking of key metrics such as time to first introduction, time to offer, and cost per hire. Backed by consultants with hands on expertise in leadership, product and technology, sales and marketing, and people and finance, MettleSearch is committed to uncovering the right candidates when others give up and to making every hiring decision better informed.
