EO Executives - Results through people

We are EO Executives - Results through people, a privately held recruitment company operating in the staffing and recruiting industry. We were founded in 2000 and are headquartered in Cologne, Germany.

We are executive search professionals with a shared mission to transform executive recruitment. We use a proven recruitment process enhanced by a tool we call executive intro. Executive intro was born out of our belief that companies historically hire leaders based on skills but fire based on behaviours, and we realised that executive recruitment had to be done differently to achieve different results. We use a blend of science, craft, and technology to de-risk critical hires for our clients and help them attract top talent. The executive intro process provides cultural insights, including a 90-second job-specific candidate video pitch, a full behavioural profile matched to the role, and a key facts section completed by the candidate in their own style. It also provides technical insights, including a full CV with interview notes, written responses to the three critical questions you set, and benchmarking on market value and salary expectations. It offers secure access via a globally accessible, 24/7, safe and password-protected portal with centralized and confidential communication. It supports proven delivery through faster, more efficient hiring processes, 96% retention over 12 months, and fees weighted on success.
