Automation companies, component manufacturers, system integrators, mechanical engineering firms and plant manufacturers need specialists who understand complex technical systems and can reliably translate them into industrial applications. The right candidate therefore often needs more than a general electrical engineering or technical qualification.
A PLC Programmer for customised special-purpose machinery, for example, has a very different profile from an Automation Engineer working on process industry production plants. A Sales Engineer for sensor technology serves different customer groups from a Key Account Manager specialising in robotics or industrial control systems. Requirements for project and leadership roles also vary depending on the level of automation, target industry and system architecture involved.
As headhunters specialising in automation technology, we therefore develop an individual search strategy for every assignment. We analyse relevant manufacturers, competitors, integrators, engineering companies and adjacent technology markets. We then identify suitable candidates and approach them directly, individually and discreetly.
Our recruitment services combine three key areas:
Recruitment consulting means working closely with HR, management and the relevant specialist department to define the requirements of the position precisely.
Headhunting means systematically identifying and directly approaching suitable specialists and executives within the relevant candidate market.
Recruitment means successfully bringing your company together with candidates who are the right fit professionally, personally and organisationally.
As a specialist recruitment partner for the automation industry, we focus on the long-term placement of demanding specialist, technical and leadership positions.

Within industrial and factory automation, we recruit professionals for automated production systems, assembly lines, manufacturing cells, handling systems and interconnected production processes.
Relevant experience may include PLC technology, drive technology, robotics, sensor integration, industrial communication and the commissioning of complex automation systems.
Our recruitment consultancy supports manufacturers of automation components as well as system integrators, mechanical engineering companies, plant manufacturers and industrial operators.
PLC systems form the technical core of many machines and production facilities. As a result, there is strong demand for professionals who can develop control concepts, program software, test systems and commission equipment at customer sites.
As headhunters specialising in PLC and control technology, we recruit for roles including:
Depending on the role, we consider knowledge of specific control platforms, programming languages, visualisation systems, bus systems and industrial communication standards.
Instrumentation and control technology plays a particularly important role in continuous and process-based production environments.
Our recruitment consultancy for I&C supports companies in filling positions across planning, engineering, project design, commissioning, service, product management and sales.
Typical areas of responsibility include:
As headhunters for instrumentation and control, we pay particular attention to the processes, plant types and target industries candidates are already familiar with.
Sensors and measurement systems capture physical variables and provide the data required for automated decisions and control processes.
We recruit specialists and executives in sensor technology, industrial measurement, testing and calibration technology, as well as optical, electrical and electronic measurement systems.
Relevant product areas may include:
For sales positions, we consider not only product knowledge but also candidates' previous applications, customer groups and sales channels.
Robotic systems combine mechanics, drive technology, control systems, sensors, software and safety technology. Positions in this field therefore often require a strong understanding of the complete system.
Our recruitment expertise covers industrial robotics, collaborative robots, gripping technology, autonomous systems, assembly automation and industrial machine vision.
Typical roles include Application Engineers, Systems Engineers, Robotics Programmers, Project Managers, Product Managers, Sales Engineers and technical leaders.
In production and process plants, process control systems, SCADA solutions and visualisation systems provide transparency, ease of operation and centralised monitoring of technical processes.
We recruit specialists with experience in system architecture, project engineering, operating concepts, process visualisation, data connectivity or the integration of different control and field levels.
A particularly important factor is whether their previous experience comes from factory automation, the process industries, energy supply, water management or building automation.
Industrial automation is increasingly being combined with data platforms, cloud and edge systems, artificial intelligence and digital services.
As a result, demand is growing for professionals who combine traditional automation expertise with a strong understanding of software, data and systems.
Our recruitment consultancy supports companies in filling positions related to:
Connected automation systems place high demands on plant availability, functional safety and the protection of industrial networks.
Depending on the assignment, we recruit specialists in Safety Engineering, Machine Safety, Safety Control Systems, Risk Assessment, Standards and Regulations, OT Security and Industrial Cybersecurity.
For these positions, in addition to technical qualifications, we pay particular attention to experience with the relevant plant types, safety requirements and regulatory frameworks.
