Lis Nielsen Recruitment

Lis Nielsen runs an independent professional services practice covering recruiting, Bewerbungsmanagement, coaching and remote assistance. She has worked as a self-employed Personalberaterin since July 2010, specialising in headhunting and recruitment at every level. Her recruiting work is framed around a distinction she makes directly: she does not simply find CVs, she finds people who genuinely fit. The Bewerbungsmanagement service takes over the whole application process on behalf of an employer, run professionally, respectfully and digitally, so that a company saves time and reaches exactly the talent that suits it. Alongside those, her coaching offer is built on listening, asking the right questions and accompanying a client with clarity and empathy towards new perspectives and workable solutions, while remote assistance provides structured and reliable support with an eye for detail.

Her specialism sits in the media industry. She draws on extensive experience in the Medienbranche, which gives her the knowledge to provide well founded advice and targeted placement for agencies as well as for companies, and her previous roles at Philipp & Keuntje and at Grabarz & Partner are what prepared her for that work. She describes herself as a networker and lateral thinker with heart, Danish calm and a hyggelig spirit, and says her long experience of making contacts and connecting people is matched by a genuine commitment to understanding what her clients and candidates actually want and need.

The practice operates in Germany. Her stated mission is to bring people together with heart, clarity and an open ear, creating connections that fit both personally and professionally, and supporting companies and candidates to develop their potential, build structures and find solutions together. Three core values underpin the work: excellence with heart, meaning she gives her best on every project with experience, care and the intention to genuinely help rather than simply deliver; connections that last, built on trust, respect and honest dealing so that collaboration actually works; and being clear, open and honest, working transparently, directly and always on equal terms, including on sensitive topics. The aim in every case is that all parties end up satisfied and successful.
