Meyer-Oltmanns & Cie –
Who we are

Norbert Meyer-Oltmanns, Malte Oltmanns and Dr Robert Philipp

Practitioners with hands-on experience – for appointments that genuinely fit

Meyer-Oltmanns & Cie. is an executive search boutique for decisive positions in mid-sized business, industry and technology. We fill C-level and board functions, management roles and specialist expert positions.

What sets us apart: we know responsibility from our own practice. Our consultants have run companies themselves, developed teams, shaped transformations and carried responsibility for results – in national and international structures. Our experience comes above all from the DACH region, Europe, the USA and Asia – with particular hands-on experience in China as well as in Korea and Japan.

That is why we understand not just CVs, but roles, markets, cultures and the requirements of specific business situations. We combine that understanding with sector knowledge, direct approach and a clear eye for fit – so that we find people who convince professionally, connect culturally and have a lasting impact.

Our values

We take responsibility for our judgement, our recommendations and the people we bring together. We stand behind what we say – even when it is uncomfortable.

We are driven by results – and by the ambition to find the right person for every appointment. People who take ownership, stand behind decisions and achieve impact. That is exactly the commitment we expect of ourselves.

 

We work through complexity, name the relevant risks and give clear recommendations. Our assessment is based on experience, analysis and a sure instinct for fit – not on gut feeling alone.

We communicate clearly, directly and respectfully. We say what we see – about requirements, profiles and fit. Even when it is not always what you want to hear. Because clarity is the basis of good decisions.

We think in relationships, not transactions. Our ambition is to create appointments that hold for the long term – for our clients, for the people we recommend and for the organisations in which they take on responsibility.

 

We are not an anonymous large-scale consultancy. That is deliberate. We work selectively, personally and with a high sense of responsibility for every mandate.

What you can expect from us: direct involvement of experienced partners, deep sector understanding, clear judgement and absolute discretion.
