Welcome to KMCG

the one for your team

Your partner for executive search for over 40 years

 

For more than four decades, we have been helping companies to find the right leaders for their key positions. As an experienced executive search consultancy, we combine tradition with innovation and help you to achieve your corporate goals in the long term.

What makes us stand out?

Our team consists exclusively of consultants who can look back on a successful career as operational managers themselves. We like to call this ‘sitting in the third chair’, because we know the perspective both as a candidate and as a manager who sets up teams and commissions headhunters. With a deep understanding of markets, industries and corporate cultures, we now sit in the third chair and identify not only the best talent, but also the perfect fit for your organisation.

You can rely on our experience, our network and our passion for excellent recruiting – because top talent is the key to your success.

We take on exclusive mandates up to C-level recruiting and find managing directors, executives, and specialists – in other words the one for your team.

Visit to the ISM trade fair in Cologne

KMCG executive search

Our consultant Lutz Eklöh recently had the pleasure of visiting the ISM in Cologne, the world’s largest trade fair for confectionery and snacks.

 

This is where all manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, and service providers meet to discuss new products, changing consumer habits, and, above all, the future of the industry.

 

As an executive search consultant at KMCG with over 30 years of operational management experience in confectionery, snacks, food, and non-food, he focused particularly on the following questions at ISM: Which business models are prevailing today and will prevail in the future, how are value chains changing, and what kind of leadership is needed to truly shape this development?
Topics such as internationalization, sustainability, health & nutrition, premiumization, and digital and alternative distribution channels were reflected in the discussions.

 

An exciting and successful event!
