Mc Search&Consulting

MC Search & Consulting is a Swiss company specialising in the search and selection of Führungs- und Vertriebspersönlichkeiten, with a focus on the Swiss market covering both the Deutschschweiz and the Suisse romande. It presents itself as a partner for executives and specialists, and says it works professionally and with integrity. For precise recruiting it analyses a client's organisation, goals and culture and applies creative solutions, with the stated aim of filling every position optimally and strengthening teams for the long term. Michel Chevalley, a Betriebsökonom FH with long management experience in industry and trade and formerly managing partner of a well known Swiss executive selection firm, has been the owner and managing director of MC Search & Consulting since 2003.

The company runs two services. Search and Selection gives candidates clear information about the opportunity and its requirements, then uses structured interviews to examine qualifications, personality and motivation, on the basis that competencies matter just as much as transparency, fairness and confidentiality. Career Consulting begins with a first conversation that clarifies goals, needs, the effort involved and the fee. It identifies individual strengths and develops personal potential by connecting emotional and analytical intelligence, with the aim of raising performance for successful career steps and optimal appointments. That side of the business is run with Michel Chevalley's partner, Dr Maria de Rocha Chevalley, a clinical psychologist, author and executive coach.

MC Search & Consulting works across the Swiss market and offers its site in German, French and English, matching the language regions it recruits in. It sets out four principles as the basis of a successful working relationship: professional and personal integrity, effective and sustainable solutions, long experience combined with creativity and intuition, and transparency, fairness and mutual respect. The qualities it says it brings are decisiveness, speed, personal strength, effectiveness and a balance between emotion and logic. The company invites both employers filling a key position and individuals wanting a confidential exchange about leadership or career questions to make contact personally. It is located at Neuheim 2 in Gersau and can be reached at [email protected] or on +41 44 380 48 48.
