About Herman Rutgers

Commitment

Commitment is at the heart of our search work. We are committed to the corporate affairs profession, our clients, and professionals. We believe that personal attention and dedication are essential. We approach each assignment, whether interim or permanent, as a unique opportunity to serve our clients with care. Commitment is also essential to the way we work together as a team.

For clients

Continuity

From a client perspective, there is only one critical factor: to have the right person in the right role. A properly structured corporate affairs or corporate communications department is vital for organisations. If a competent leader or specialist is missing, it needs to be addressed immediately. We have an up-to-date database of top candidates. As a result, we guarantee to find the most competent individual for any vacant position, permanent or interim.

For professionals

Connection

We firmly believe in staying in touch and connected with professionals throughout their careers. During personal interviews, we discuss professional qualities and motivations. This is the starting point for the next career step. This could be a permanent position, an interim assignment or a coaching programme.
