Mainheads

MainHeads is a specialised recruitment consultancy based in Frankfurt, Germany, with expertise in both IT and non-IT sectors. The firm recognises that finding the right permanent employee requires time, market expertise and a precise matching process. They offer direct recruitment (Direktvermittlung) services combining thorough candidate search with streamlined placement.

The company specialises across multiple domains: IT infrastructure (team leads, project managers, system and network administrators, support staff), executive search (department heads and C-level roles including CIO, CTO, CFO), IT development (team leads, architects, software developers in C, C++, C# and Java, web designers), IT security and digitalisation (security engineers and managers, IT auditors, consultants, AI engineers and digitalisation advisors), and non-IT roles (HR, marketing, finance and senior assistant positions). They operate with strict confidentiality for sensitive roles.

MainHeads introduced their proprietary 'Meet-your-Head' process, an innovative recruitment method that saves clients time and cost. Candidates meet on neutral territory in MainHeads' Frankfurt office, allowing direct comparison of 3-6 candidates in a single compact session, with immediate feedback the same day. This approach followed by client visits for selected candidates streamlines the hiring process whilst maintaining high service and candidate experience standards.
