Testimonials

Michael Neumann

EVP Sales & Customer Development
ZF Group

“Let me re-emphasize my appreciation for the outstanding search support. We was able to onboard some true results/goal-orientated Global Sales and Business Leaders with both Sales and Program Management experience. I am very pleased with the jointly selected candidates and especially with the performance our new hires are delivering. Looking forward working with the team at Nexus in the near future.”

Mark Stidham

Founding Partner
Spectrum Management

“I have had the experience working with Nexus whilst holding senior management roles at a major Tier 1 automotive supplier. They was extremely easy to work with; very professional; very flexible in managing both my schedule and the candidate schedules. Most importantly, their efforts generated multiple candidates who were extremely qualified. Any one of the candidates presented were capable of handling the job opening. The only thing left for us to do was pick the best!”

Zdeněk Franče

“Last but not the least I want to thank you for your help! I remember one of our first calls right after I decided to resign in Mahle, continuing with further discussions while being assigned to a global project in Catalonia and finishing the process with KION while travelling across South America. I must emphasize that the same way I was enjoying the whole process of searching and finding an appropriate placement for me with you, I am now enjoying working with Michal in KION. Which is only possible thanks to the way you do your job, because it was not just finding an assignment but finding a right one!”

It was an amazing experience, they not only identified the match between my profile and the company’s requirements, but followed the complete process, supporting me in every step of way. As a candidate I felt confident in the process, this was mainly caused by the confidence inspired by all the support provided by Nexus.”
