What We Do
Executive Search
Only a true expert can recognize
great leadership.
The future of your organization relies on the quality of its leaders. Hiring the best executives that fit in your organizational culture, understand your business strategies, and take your organization to the top means much more than just analyzing CVs. Our executive search services deliver unmatched results with an end-to-end recruitment process held personally by our team of consultants. Our industry experts understand your company’s DNA and its most important business challenges and match your requirements with top candidates with the right values, skills and mindset for taking your business to the next level.
Our Approach
Our partners are experienced executives who have led teams, managed transformations, and delivered results themselves. That’s why we understand what real leadership looks like — beyond the résumé. We combine strategic insight with hands-on experience to help you find someone who fits your goals, your culture, and your challenges.
We believe in partnership. Every search starts with a conversation — to understand your business, your priorities, and what success truly means for the role.
HOW WE WORK
B&P Executive Search Process
1. Understanding Client Needs
Every search starts with a deep understanding of your business. We take time to learn your culture, strategy, and leadership challenges — defining what great performance truly looks like for the role.
2. Identifying Opportunities
We analyze the market to identify leaders whose experience and mindset align with your company’s direction. Our goal is to find candidates who fit both your strategic goals and your values.
3. Reaching Potential Candidates
Using our network and market expertise, we personally approach high-caliber executives and present your opportunity in a compelling and authentic way that attracts genuine interest.
4. In-Depth Evaluation
We conduct structured interviews to assess each candidate’s leadership style, core competencies, and cultural fit. Our partners’ executive experience ensures every evaluation is relevant and realistic.
5. Identifying Top Talent
From the candidate pool, we shortlist those who best meet your criteria — typically the top one to three leaders — for further review and feedback discussions.
6. Top-Tier Assessment
Our Executive Search Report combines data-driven assessment tools with partner insights, offering a clear, objective view of each finalist’s strengths, development areas, and fit.
7. End-to-End Support
We stay closely involved during final interviews and negotiations, ensuring a smooth process for both client and candidate. Our commitment continues beyond the hire to support successful integration.

Data-Driven, Expert-Backed Assessment
The B&P Executive Search Report blends scientific precision with human insight. Using ProfilesXT, we gain data-driven visibility into a candidate’s competencies, potential, and leadership style. This objective foundation helps us identify key strengths and development areas early in the process.
What makes our approach unique is the interpretation by Partners with years of executive experience. They translate assessment results into practical insights, considering the nuances of each role, team, and organization. The result is a balanced evaluation that goes beyond skills — revealing leaders who are not only capable but the right fit for your company’s strategy and culture.

Andrew Bergmann
Partner
FMCG Food
Throughout my professional life, I have worked for companies undergoing significant changes. In these settings, I contributed to and led strategic alignments, M&A executions, post-merger integrations, and optimization of organizational structures and workflows.
I believe that successful changes are based on a hands-on approach, consistency, and well-structured, results-driven processes. However, without the right people, their support, and clear leadership, change processes often fail to deliver the expected results. As these changes occur in an ever-evolving environment, it’s crucial to regularly review the strategic goals.
With deep experience in the FMCG-Food Industry and hands-on leadership across multiple functions, I help companies navigate substantial change and post-merger phases to achieve their strategic objectives. My support focuses on creating the right structures, aligning the right people, and building the capabilities needed for lasting results
Change is a challenge – with the right leadership and structure, it becomes a platform for value creation. I´m here to support that journey.
