Telephone: +49 (0) 871 430 888 52
Email: d.fertl@senator-partners.de
Industry expertise: Plant engineering, Automotive & E-mobility, Defence and Aerospace
Functional competence: Purchasing and Procurement, Supply Chain Management
Area of expertise: Aptitude Testing & Management Assessment

 

Following his commercial apprenticeship, he was able to learn the ropes of the industry from the ground up at a large HR consultancy.

At Senator Executive Search Partners, Mr Daniel Fertl is Head of Research at the Landshut office and specialises in the automotive and defence sectors.
In recent years, he has often taken on difficult and challenging roles in these areas.
In this role, he is involved in the areas of candidate and project management, aptitude assessment and, of course, direct recruitment („headhunting“).

In order to continue to meet these high standards, it is more important than ever to recruit highly qualified staff.
The shortage of skilled workers is set to worsen in the coming years, and competition for the best talent will become increasingly fierce.

During the recruitment process, Mr Fertl not only assesses whether candidates meet the technical requirements of the role, but also the extent to which the company and the prospective employee are a good fit on a personal level.

In this context, he always quotes Richard Branson:
„Hiring the right people takes time, the right questions and a healthy dose of curiosity. What do you think is the most important factor when building your team? For us, it’s personality.“
