Matthias Barhainski is a partner in our centres of expertise for Automotive & E-Mobility, Construction / Technical Building Services (TGA) / Facility Management (FM) and Mechanical Engineering.
He is also our specialist in the areas of aptitude assessment and onboarding. He has also been involved in management audits and organisational development projects.

After completing his degree in business administration at the University of Passau, Matthias Barhainski joined a small recruitment consultancy in Munich that operated across various sectors and at different levels. There, he learnt the ropes of the recruitment consultancy trade from the ground up.
He began by sourcing suitable candidates in his role as a researcher/recruiter, and later went on to build up research teams and lead them as Head of Research. This has enabled him to acquire a broad knowledge of many sectors and roles, and he always knows where to find the right people for a vacancy.
At the same time, he began to build up a client network and secure his own clients, which shifted his focus even more towards his clients’ needs.

He gained this experience whilst working for a Germany-wide recruitment consultancy group specialising in technical roles (engineering positions) and has been with SENATOR since the very beginning.

Drawing on his wealth of experience in filling both technical and commercial roles, Mr Matthias Barhainski provides his clients with targeted support in their staff selection and recruitment processes. He guides candidates competently, empathetically and confidentially as they embark on new challenges and careers.

His approach is based on the principle of finding not just the candidate with the right professional qualifications for his clients, but the right person for the job.
He is a recruitment consultant / headhunter through and through.
