THE STARTING POINT

Technically outstanding. And yet, no progress.

Four situations that recur across thousands of conversations with engineers and scientists — you may recognize your own.

"I meet nine out of ten requirements — and I don't get an interview."

Twenty applications, three automated rejections, then silence — from precisely the companies your profile fits best. Between the automated screening and the HR inbox, profiles that the hiring department would jump at simply disappear — they never even get to see them.

"Same role for six years. The ones who get promoted are the ones who sell themselves better."

You've been counting on good work speaking for itself. It doesn't: the people who decide on promotions and pay don't see your work — they see only what reaches them. And as long as you keep everything running smoothly, from above it looks exactly like that: as if it's running on its own.

"Maybe things would be better somewhere else. Maybe not. From the inside, I can't judge what I'm actually worth on the market."

After ten years in the same company or the same niche, you have no benchmark left: salary bands, roles within reach, realistic alternatives — all unknown. Without that data, every decision is a guessing game — so you'd rather make none at all.

"Fifteen years at the same company — and now restructuring. My last job application was ten years ago."

Layoffs no longer spare the good performers either. But anyone who's been off the market for a while starts twice as cold: interview formats, selection processes, and decision-making have all changed completely — and you're missing exactly the routine you need most, right when everything depends on it.

One gap behind all four situations.

In none of these cases is the technical skill missing. What's missing is information from the other side: what promotion and hiring decisions are actually based on, who gets to see a profile, how selection processes work today — and what your experience is actually worth on the market. You can't see that from the inside. I spent twelve years on that side of the table, guiding hundreds of decision-makers through their selections — and out of that experience came the system that follows.

DOES THIS FIT?

A word of honesty upfront

Specialization means drawing boundaries: my data, my network, and my experience come from working with engineers, scientists, and executives. For other professional fields, someone with the same depth in your field is the better choice.

ABOUT ME

12 Years, 1,100 Interviews

For over 12 years, I've placed engineering and science professionals across the DACH region as an executive search consultant and managing director. The track record: over 15,000 CVs reviewed, more than 1,100 personally accompanied interviews.
That pattern never left me: the person who gets the offer is rarely the strongest on paper — it's the one who's best positioned, able to tailor their skills precisely to what the company needs and communicate that fit. Usually not for lack of ability, but because they're missing information that's everyday knowledge on the employer's side. That's exactly the gap my consulting closes.

In consulting, I work exclusively on your behalf — you get clear findings instead of motivation: what's working, what isn't, and where the bottleneck sits for you.

PROCESS

PROCESS

Questionnaire — 2 minutes

You're a step ahead of my questions and answer them yourself — you fill out a few quick questions about your situation and goal, with a click, no cover letter, no CV upload. Then you pick a time slot directly.

Career Analysis — 45 Minutes

You go through your starting point together: market-value positioning, what's currently holding you back, and which lever makes the difference for you. You walk away with a clear finding — whether or not we go on to work together.

Your decision

If it's a good fit, we'll go over the structure and investment of working together. If it's not, you keep the findings — no follow-up loops, no pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

The data foundation. Coaching works with methods and motivation — I work with patterns from 12 years in executive search: over 1,100 accompanied interviews, real salary bands, the decision-making logic on the employer side. You get findings instead of exercises — tested against real hiring decisions, not career-advice books.

Fully confidential. There is no candidate database, nothing is passed on to companies, and I receive no commission from employers — I work solely on your behalf. No one learns about our work together unless you decide otherwise.

All the more so. The higher the level, the fewer roles are advertised publicly — and the more the outcome depends on positioning, access, and negotiation rather than on your CV. Those three things are never taught systematically in technical careers. This consulting is built for senior profiles — not despite your experience, but because of it.

Yes. The diagnosis shows where you stand and which lever will move you forward — a job change is one possible outcome, not a prerequisite. Positioning, visibility, and negotiation work just as well inside your current company: in promotions, salary reviews, and internal role changes.

Yes — in fact, that's a classic case, because market entry is exactly where insider knowledge of the local hiring process is missing most. To be straight with you: the diagnosis first establishes whether your profile, language level, and general circumstances make a realistic entry possible. Even a "not yet" is a finding you can work with.

Remote via video, in stages along the three phases. Expect a few focused hours per week — the work happens alongside your job, not instead of it. Scope and duration depend on your findings; we'll define the specifics at the end of your career analysis.

That depends on the findings — scope and modules differ with your starting point. As a rough guide: it's a four-figure investment. I'll show you the specifics for your situation at the end of your career analysis — and only if it's a genuine fit. The analysis itself is free and comes with no obligation.

Yes, you can: for employees in Germany, career consulting undertaken for professional reasons is typically classed as income-related expenses (Werbungskosten, § 9 EStG) — it serves to secure and develop your income. You receive an invoice with a clear description of services for your tax records; depending on your personal tax rate, a noticeable share of the investment comes back. Austria and Switzerland have their own rules, some of them comparable.

Two ways: on LinkedIn I write regularly about engineering careers in the DACH region — that's where you can see how I think and work. Or use the career analysis for exactly that purpose: 45 minutes, a real diagnosis, no obligation. Afterwards you'll know whether my approach is right for you.
