This requires a new generation of talents and business solutions that are more intelligent, more sustainable, more resilient and more innovative.
The competition for talents in the area of Life Sciences is becoming increasingly hard; from now on and for the foreseeable future, new skills will be required in the areas of pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and medical technology.

In all its different forms, the public sector is one of the most important employers inside Germany and abroad.
The demands and challenges faced by public- and community organizations resemble those in the private sector to an ever-greater degree. Increasingly, the focus is on uncomplicated, accessible and practical products and services – for employees as well as for customers.
Growing importance is attached to digitalization and the transformation to clear, modern working practices, both internally and externally. Easy access, faster turnaround, online services and e-documentation are just some of the key issues in this context.
Unlike the private sector, the public sector must also deal with another set of very specific demands: service to the community, political issues and a high level of public interest require particular consideration.
Managers must be able to adapt to higher expectations. In addition, the increased demand for operational efficiency combined with a performance environment in the public sector requires a new style of management, more akin to that of the private sector.
The following sectors in particular are seeing a high demand for innovative and inclusive management personalities:
Our consultants have extensive experience and well-established networks in all areas of the public sector. They are consistently able to identify the most suitable candidates for their clients and provide on-going and reliable attention to the outstanding talents in the market.
Since the very beginning of our company, the Practice Group Executive Diagnostics (Management Audit) has worked across business sectors in interdisciplinary teams consisting of psychologists and business managers.
Today, companies find themselves in a permanent change process that requires senior managers to meet continuous new challenges. These changes often coincide with a new corporate strategy, a revised leadership philosophy and the necessity of ongoing employee development.
We support our clients with the following methods of aptitude diagnostics:
We welcome the opportunity to support you with these procedures either as part of a (planned) transformation process, or to be an objective, external partner if you wish to undertake a process of strategic succession planning.Whichever diagnostic process you chose, our philosophy remains the same: we value comprehensible and fair processes, with transparent communication and a valid but pragmatic methodology.
Unabhängig von der Wahl des eignungsdiagnostischen Verfahrens, das zum Einsatz kommt, ist unsere Philosophie immer: Wir legen Wert auf nachvollziehbare und faire Prozesse mit einer transparenten Kommunikation sowie eine valide und zugleich pragmatische Vorgehensweise.
SI Interim Management is an agency for the placement of particularly qualified interim managers in temporary management positions in Germany and abroad. When selecting our interim managers, we are open to any nationality. We pay attention to qualification, personality and integrity. Trust is our highest priority in the personnel business. This also applies without reservation to interim management. Despite all the efficiency in processing interim requests, it must be ensured that the client’s trust in the diligence of his interim management provider is justified – especially in the case of foreign assignments. That is why we take a particularly long time to carefully select our candidates. We have a great interest in conscientious selection, because every interim manager we employ is our business card.
The success of foreign investments depends on the people to whom they are entrusted. They must be ready at the right time, for the right duration and with the right qualifications. We only propose candidates with the best fit to the request, increasingly including the nationality of the target country.
The starting point for every project is a strategic evaluation of our client´s company, and of the market in which they operate; the broad expertise and experience of our team is augmented by specific professional analysis. Our Research Consultants are highly trained and have extensive experience of creating individual, tailor-made search processes; they will identify suitable candidates, make selective approaches, inform and motivate, always in the context of the criteria agreed in the position profile. Our Research Consultants already know the relevant players in any given market as well as the best access channels, providing a valuable competitive advantage. Their professional expertise and market knowledge make our Research Consultants a sought-after contact for companies and candidates. InterSearch Executive Consultants stands for providing a comprehensive consultancy service. This includes, among other things, the agreement of the position profile and search criteria; the definition of a search process based on client needs; an international search, if necessary; the pro-active design of the approach; presenting suitable candidates to the client in person; substantive support during the decision-making process.
We assess managers in the executive search process based on their performance potential and we support their integration into the organization.
In order for a management placement to be a perfect fit, our search teams evaluate the contribution that a candidate can make to successfully meeting a company´s strategic objectives. In the course of the systematic assessment process, we use specially designed, structured interviews and methods of aptitude diagnostics from our specialist Executive Diagnostics group; certain online tools, for instance, can generate robust results very quickly. In order to round off our assessment, we also gather references for selected candidates.
Besides delivering a thorough screening process, we place great importance on the respectful treatment of our candidates; we aim to inspire and motivate, as well as giving honest feedback. Beyond this, we accompany the on-boarding of candidates in order to assist with their integration and long-term development.
