CTG Consulting GmbH

Specialist search firms under one German group

CTG Consulting GmbH is a recruitment and management consulting group working across the German-speaking countries. It says it has been placing specialists and senior managers, in Germany and abroad, since 2011, and that its network now holds more than 770,000 executives, experts and specialist partners. An earlier version of its pitch counted seven specialised agencies; the current site describes nine, so the group has grown since.

The specialist agencies

Each agency covers a different corner of the market:

• alphacoders places software developers, programmers and web developers.
• BENOMIK is a data-driven recruiter for industrial firms, filling technical director, lead engineer, IoT solution architect and industrial designer roles with a focus on Industry 4.0 skills.
• CareerTeam runs executive searches for managing directors and for marketing, sales, e-commerce, digital transformation, strategy, purchasing and operations leaders.
• Foxio Consulting staffs digital specialists at entry and middle-management level and builds agile, cross-functional teams.
• Numeris Consulting fills leadership and expert roles in construction, real estate and financial management, including finance directors.
• PALTRON handles managers and specialists in classic IT and in newer technology fields.
• Sinceritas searches in healthcare and life sciences: pharma, biotech, medical technology, care providers and payers, from senior physicians to regulatory affairs and quality management heads.

From recruitment to a wider consulting offer

The group says its mission is building great teams by matching companies and candidates who genuinely fit. Its own awards claims include recognition for CareerTeam as a newcomer and for client experience, a headhunter award, and a top rating from a German business magazine in 2020 for IT, digitalisation and professional services consulting.

The current site presents the group as more than recruiters. It combines consulting on strategy and implementation, executive search, interim management and recruitment, so that a client can move from planning to staffing without handing work between providers.

Different services for different buyers

For HR leaders and managing directors the focus is on filling critical or hard-to-staff roles and building teams under time pressure. It also runs a state-funded training academy for existing staff, certified under the German AZAV scheme, which the site says can be funded up to the full cost. For private equity investors it offers an adviser role across the investment cycle, from due diligence to value creation, with access to C-level candidates and industry experts under a structured 130-day engagement model.
