Companies in special-purpose machinery and plant engineering need professionals who understand complex technical solutions and can translate individual customer requirements into functional machines and systems.
The candidate market is highly specialised. A Mechanical Design Engineer working on automated assembly systems brings different experience from a Development Engineer for packaging machinery. A Sales Engineer for custom production systems, in turn, works with different sales cycles from a Key Account Manager for standardised machine components.
Project Managers also differ significantly depending on whether they are responsible for individual machines, complete production lines or international turnkey projects.
As headhunters specialising in special-purpose machinery and plant engineering, we therefore develop an individual search strategy for every assignment. We analyse relevant machinery manufacturers, plant engineering companies, system integrators, engineering companies and adjacent technology markets. We then identify suitable candidates and approach them individually and discreetly.
Our recruitment services combine three key areas:
Recruitment consulting means working closely with HR, management and the relevant specialist department to precisely define the technical, personal and organisational requirements of the position.
Headhunting means conducting targeted research 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 technically, personally and organisationally.
As a specialist recruitment partner for mechanical and plant engineering, munerio focuses on the long-term placement of demanding specialist, technical and leadership positions.
