Executive Search
Partner-led executive search for VC and PE funds and their portfolio companies.
Get in touchThe Search Partners combines two complementary perspectives.
Daniela Blumenwitz brings long-standing executive search experience from leading international search firms. Sabine Scherer brings the investor perspective, shaped by many years working with VC and PE funds and their portfolio companies. Together, they combine search expertise with investor-side judgement.
Both partners work directly on every search, from defining the role and approaching the market through to assessment, selection and placement.
Every search benefits from two senior perspectives rather than the traditional partner-to-execution handover.
Where We Focus
Portfolio company leadership.
Senior leadership roles in investor-backed companies, with a particular focus on CEO, CFO, commercial, operations and people leadership positions.
Investment teams.
Investment roles within VC and PE funds, from Associate through to Partner level, typically in Germany.
Why This Works
A partner-led model.
Every mandate is worked by both partners. Sabine and Daniela stay directly involved throughout the search, bringing two senior perspectives to the brief, the market and the candidates.
The model is deliberately selective. The Search Partners takes on a limited number of mandates, allowing both partners to stay close to the client and the search from start to finish.
