Späth &

SPÄTH PARTNERS, which subtitles itself executive consultancy, is a German Personalberatung that supports large and mid-sized companies in finding excellent leadership. The company describes its remit precisely: candidates who are top qualified and who fit the hiring business with its specific structure and culture. Its site is organised around Leistungen, Philosophie, Team, Partner-Netzwerk, Presse, Karriere, Podcast and Kontakt. Alongside the consultancy work it publishes a Report 2024 / 2025 on eight proven methods for winning qualified Führungskräfte, offered as a free PDF by email, and produces a podcast, Headhunter Insights, in which it talks to entrepreneurs and leaders about what modern leadership involves.

The practice is built on sector knowledge rather than volume. Every consultant works in the field they specialised in or previously worked in as a manager, which the company says means it understands the jobs and the corporate cultures, knows the market situation and the specific trends, and speaks the language of the sector. It presents itself as von Managern für Manager, judging exactly which qualities and qualifications a new post holder needs, and it works across family-run and group-controlled companies, nationally and internationally oriented. Its stated criterion is quality, not quantity: candidates are researched before they are approached, through classic Direktansprache and online channels, for vacant Management- und Spezialistenpositionen. The company states a Besetzungsquote of 98 percent.

SPÄTH PARTNERS works from Lichtentaler Str. 100 in Baden-Baden and can be reached on [email protected]. Its stated priority is the lasting success of its clients, backed by discretion, confidentiality and ethical principles for transparent, partnership-based cooperation. The consultant stays in close dialogue with both the company and the candidate throughout a mandate, and the company does not stop at the hire: it accompanies employer and candidate until the end of the Probezeit. A Partner-Netzwerk and a careers page, aimed at motivated people who want clear advancement, complete the offer.
