The Handelsblatt Research Institute has once again recognised AltoPartners as one of the best in the business. Congratulations to our Partners in Darmstadt, Munich and Wiesbaden for this recognition.
The institute (in collaboration with The IQ Company) surveyed 20,800 employees from around 2,800 executive search firms and 52,000 managers and HR managers. 246 executive search firms were evaluated and the newspaper, known as one of the most prestigious business publications in Germany, noted that the executive search industry is undergoing rapid transformations.
The 40 top consulting firms of 2025 were then determined, and AltoPartners is on the list for the second consecutive year.
As Managing Partner of AltoPartners Germany Marco Arcaini says, personal conversations, intuition, and attitude remain indispensable as qualities that play a role in upcoming transformations. “I am seeing more clients for whom it is more important that a candidate brings the right skillset for change.”
