How a communications director makes a real difference

Provides clarity and context

Communication is coordinated both internally and externally, from newsletters to campaigns. The result is a consistent external message and clear internal dialogue, which fosters a sense of security, engagement, and collaboration.

Builds and manages the brand

A well-thought-out strategy highlights the brand’s identity, values, and offerings using the right tone, channels, and timing. This strengthens the brand’s position among both customers and employees.

Driving change through communication

When change occurs, clear and consistent messages that are well-established within the organization are ensured. This reduces resistance, fosters engagement, and leads to greater impact.

The recruitment process

Our recruitment process is fast, streamlined, and tailored to your needs. We ensure you find the right candidate quickly through a clear job description and an efficient screening process.

1. Scope of Work & Objectives

We listen carefully to your expectations, goals, and current situation. A job description or job posting can serve as a basis, and we conduct a structured interview with the client.

2. Search for candidates in the network

We select and contact approximately 20 suitable candidates. We conduct interviews with the relevant and available consultants we identify, based on the job description.

3. Quality Assurance

The top 3–4 candidates are presented to the client within 1–3 days. A follow-up meeting with the client is held to finalize the selection and plan the next steps.

4. Customer Interview – Background Check

The client conducts interviews, any tests they may require, and interviews with the candidate’s grandparents. References are checked as needed, and a background check may be conducted on the final candidate.

5. Contract

We draw up a contract specifying the duration and scope of the assignment, always with a transparent pricing structure so that both the client and the consultant know how the fee is allocated. We always pay 80% of the fee to the consultant. If the client is dissatisfied, the contract can be terminated with a maximum of one month’s notice.

6. Assignments are carried out

Throughout the project, we maintain regular contact with both the client and the consultant to address any questions or gather feedback necessary for a successful collaboration.

7. Conclusion – Potential Employment

The assignment is concluded as specified in the agreement; however, if the assignment was intended to lead to employment and both parties agree, it will result in a hiring. The recruitment fee decreases the longer the assignment has lasted.

The leader of the organization

Strategic vision and operational acumen

The leader keeps the big picture in mind while paying close attention to the details. The balance between planning and day-to-day work ensures that communication is precise and effective.

Understanding the target audience and linguistic intuition

Messages are tailored to the audience and context, whether it involves leadership, internal dialogue, or external positioning. Tone and style are adapted to ensure that the message gets across.

Confident and solution-oriented under pressure

As the pace picks up, structure and calm are established. The situation is managed through clear priorities and practical measures, which builds trust both internally and externally.
