Cross-border executive search – based in North America.
By expanding our operations in North America and establishing a base in Toronto, Canada, we are creating a strong transatlantic link for our clients and candidates. As our direct local contact, Claus Hahne is responsible for establishing and developing our presence in Canada and the USA.
Drawing on many years of international experience in executive search, Claus Hahne assists companies in identifying and recruiting qualified specialists and executives. The focus is on successfully filling key strategic positions in an increasingly globalised market environment.
Our work in Toronto is aimed at strengthening cross-border cooperation, efficiently implementing transatlantic recruitment projects and sustainably developing international client relationships. Through in-depth market understanding, intercultural competence and a robust network on both sides of the Atlantic, we create the framework for successful, forward-looking recruitment decisions.
Senator Executive Search Partners therefore stands not only for regional expertise, but also for a global perspective – and, with its Toronto office, offers central access to the North American market.
