Hammer Andersen excels in recruiting board members, top executives and middle managers across diverse leadership roles. We place Board members, CEO's, CFO's, COO's, CCO's, VP's, country managers, regional directors, department heads and middle managers. Our recruitment expertise spans Denmark and international markets, with a focus on Board, C-, V-, D-, and B-suite roles.
Since 2006 we have placed more than 2500 candidates in our three business units. Many of the executives we placed in the first years are still in their companies - at the same or at a higher level.
Our offices are located in Copenhagen and Aarhus, Denmark.
We typically present a strong selection of candidates within 4 - 6 weeks. Most board and executive recruitments are conducted through a discreet search process.
We provide a 12-month replacement warranty for board members and executives. Replacements are seldom and we consistently fulfill our engagements successfully.
In our recruitments, we use highly validated Big 5 personal tests, which measures competencies and indicates future behaviour. Executives also measure for leadership impact and risk profile. In addition, we can also measure cognitive abilities - intelligence tests that can be compiled according to the content of the job.
We offer in-depth background candidate checks - for fiduciary positions. Hammer Andersen will receive and check the candidate's resume and diplomas. We also perform reference checks and criminal records. In addition we offer in-depth background check on the final candidate. This is done via our independent partner, CERTA.
A structured recruitment process will ensure the best candidate for the job!
Recruitment decisions are complex. How can we make sure that the candidate will meet expectations? Does the candidate have the right knowledge and skills for the job? Is the candidate the perfect fit for the organizational culture? Ultimately hiring decisions always feels subjective.
Objectivity is imperative!
To remove as much subjectivity from the process as possible, the recruitment process must entail thorough candidate assessment. The hiring manager must be able to make an informed decision. We will assist with just that.
We deploy a structured recruitment process and have rich access to candidates. We assist with recruitment of executives and members of the board. We source, evaluate and present candidates, who can become part of the company's leadership team.
Our structured method ensures that candidates are thoroughly and objectively assessed. Search processes are basically a ‘numbers game’ where a large quantity results in a high-quality outcome. We have minimum requirements for the number of candidates to be sourced - depending on the type of job opening. This is agreed with the customer.
Once our candidate is employed, the candidate will get access to Hammer Andersen for 6 months. All our recruitments include coaching sessions free of charge for the company. We will guide and coach the new executive to ensure a great start in the new job.
A 12-month warranty is provided for executives. If the candidate stop within the warranty period, we will recruit a new candidate for the position at no extra charge.
Hammer Andersen will receive and check the candidate's resume and diplomas. We also perform reference checks and criminal records. In addition we offer in-depth background check on the final candidate. This is done via our partner, CERTA Intelligence & Security. CERTA is based on the competencies, working methods and procedures used by intelligence and security services.
