Operating from Hamburg with multilingual partners who speak English, German and Danish, the firm delivers discreet, high touch recruitment for key positions at specialist, management and executive level. Exact Recruitment solves most assignments through proactive headhunting and active sourcing rather than advertising, taking responsibility and ownership throughout the entire recruitment lifecycle. Assignments are tailored to client needs and underpinned by validated psychometric assessments from Thomas International, with the option to provide single assessments as a second opinion for internal candidates, including management roles. The team has a broad functional range spanning sales and marketing, customer service, HR, IT, finance, bookkeeping and controlling, production and operations, procurement, and logistics and supply chain, and a wide industry footprint that includes processing and discrete manufacturing, construction, renewable energy, transport and logistics, media and IT, recycling, and selected wholesale and retail segments. Typical placements range from technical and commercial specialists to senior leaders such as Country Manager, plant manager, finance leader, e commerce manager and CEO, with a long reference list demonstrating repeated success and returning customers. Clients value the personal and discreet approach, structured assessments, and efficient delivery when roles cannot be filled through advertising alone, particularly for bilingual or cross market profiles across Denmark, Germany, Austria and the German speaking part of Switzerland. Exact Recruitment works to EU data protection standards and invites prospective clients to an initial conversation to scope needs and define a transparent, results oriented search plan that aligns with culture, competency requirements and market realities.
