Daniel Fertl

Email: d.fertl@senator-partners.de
Sector expertise: Plant engineering, automotive & e-mobility, defense and aerospace
Functional expertise: Purchasing and procurement, supply chain management
Specialist expertise: aptitude diagnostics & management assessment

After completing his commercial training, he was able to learn the tools of the trade from scratch at a large recruitment consultancy.

At Senator Executive Search Partners, Mr. Daniel Fertl is Head of Research at the Landshut office and specializes in the automotive and defence sectors.
In recent years, he has often taken on difficult and challenging positions in these sectors.
He is involved in the areas of applicant and project management, aptitude diagnostics and, of course, direct approach ("headhunting").

In order to continue to meet this high standard, highly qualified personnel must be recruited more than ever before.
The shortage of skilled workers will continue to increase in the coming years and competition for the best minds will become increasingly fierce.

During the recruitment process, Mr. Fertl not only checks the technical match with the requirements profile, but also the extent to which the company and the future employee fit together on a personal level.

In this context, he always mentions the quote from 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."
