Our history - a family business

Friedrichs & Partner Unternehmensberatung GmbH was founded by Dr. Hans Friedrichs, co-founder and managing director of the German Society for Human Resources Management (DGFP). After Dr. Friedrichs passed away, Mathias Friedrichs took over the company as managing director.

With our office in Düsseldorf and our Senior Executive Advisors in Stuttgart and Hamburg, we have direct access to Germany's major economic hubs, positioning us ideally to provide our services throughout Germany.

As a generalist executive search boutique, we primarily work with industrial companies, filling executive roles and across various functional areas. Our clients range from mid-sized family businesses to global corporations, both internationally and nationally.

With over 2,300 executive search assignments completed for more than 600 client companies across various industries, we bring this extensive expertise to our daily work, providing our clients with profound experiences and advisory skills.

The long-standing collaboration with our Senior Executive Advisors, combined with our well-coordinated back-office team in Düsseldorf, contributes to a particularly effective and targeted partnership from which our clients clearly benefit.
