Dr. Richter Heidelberger

DR. RICHTER HEIDELBERGER, which trades as HR Partners and is a brand of Richter Heidelberger GmbH, is a Personalberatung specialised in executive search. Since 2008 it has filled C-level and key positions for mittelständische Unternehmen, family businesses and corporates, and it describes its work as executive search with entrepreneurial substance. Since 2025 the firm has been part of the QUESTAX Group. Its three core competences are executive search at top level, filling leadership positions with personalities that shape a company; Direktansprache, the targeted identification and personal approach of executives; and a structured selection process paired with strategic advice throughout the appointment. The consultancy commits to the Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer und qualifizierter Personalberatung, the GoPB principles of the BDU Fachverband Personalberatung.

The firm works for three groups of clients: Industrie, Banken and the öffentlicher Dienst. Its approach is described as systematic market analysis, personal and partnership based, long term rather than transaction oriented, and responsible and discreet. The reasons it gives for choosing it start with quality and responsibility: its own highly qualified and professional research team, well founded sector expertise and long standing, prominent experience in Personalberatung. The network argument follows from the QUESTAX connection, which combines executive search with the strength of the wider group, and the firm points to framework agreements and long term partnerships with well known companies. Its published figures record more than 1,800 positions filled at all levels, more than 365 framework agreements and annual revenue of 160 million euros across the whole group. Services are organised for three audiences, companies, candidates and executives, each with their own section of the site.

The consultancy is based at Bergheimer Straße 147 in 69115 Heidelberg, with enquiries at [email protected] and on +49 6221 89017100, and it maintains a presence on LinkedIn and XING. The site carries a team page, an about section, a services overview, a sector page and a news feed, and it offers separate contact forms depending on whether the enquiry concerns a mandate, a candidacy or general information. What the firm puts forward as its distinguishing feature is the combination of a specialist boutique's discretion and research depth with the reach and financial strength of the QUESTAX Group behind it.
