Client testimonial

It was a pleasure working with Niemann Consulta! The entire process was carried out in a very professional and friendly manner. I received a very detailed briefing about the position, which made it much easier for me to evaluate the role. The team supported me from the first call all the way to signing the contract. Collaborating with a smaller recruitment consultancy simplifies communication between both parties and speeds up the entire process. I look forward to working with Niemann Consulta again, whether as a candidate or as a client looking to fill a position.

Head of Sales North Europe UBCsrl, Italien

Working with Ms. Niemann was a very pleasant and inspiring experience. Ms. Niemann has a remarkable talent for understanding candidates and presenting new career paths and opportunities. At all times, I felt well supported. I am happy in my new role and with the new career perspective it has provided.

HEAD of VISUAL MERCHANDISING Akris, Schweiz

I have known Niemann Consulta for almost seven years now. During my first conversation with Silke at that time, it quickly became clear to me that Niemann Consulta is a very professional, reliable, and discreet recruitment agency with deep industry knowledge. Silke listened attentively to truly understand and get to know me, so she could find the perfect candidate. Three years ago, she successfully placed me in my current position. The entire recruitment process was marked by a high standard of professional quality and transparency. Additionally, the collaboration with Silke was built on great trust, which was very important to me.

STORE MANAGERIN TUMI, Wien

Working with Niemann Consulta was highly professional and results-oriented. The target position was clearly and thoroughly described, and the assessment of the required skills was well justified. Especially in the fashion segment, a very precise industry know-how is essential here. Communication with Silke Niemann is always open, friendly, and honest.
