CLIENT OVERVIEW
Our client is a global leader in outsourced professional services, headquartered in the United States. Operating within the Business Consulting and Services industry, the firm delivers a broad range of operational and advisory solutions to clients across both public and private sectors, including high-stakes industries such as defense, aerospace, and critical infrastructure.
With a workforce exceeding 10,000 employees worldwide, the company has a significant international footprint. As part of its expansion into the European market, it needed to scale highly specialized teams in Germany to support projects in the airspace sector—requiring talent with advanced security clearances and niche expertise.
CHALLENGE
As the client took on a growing number of contracts in the German airspace industry, it faced a critical talent shortage. The roles required not only advanced technical knowledge but also compliance with stringent national security requirements—meaning candidates had to possess high-level security clearances recognized by German authorities.
Finding professionals with the right combination of experience, language skills, and security eligibility proved to be a major bottleneck. The local talent pool was limited, and traditional recruitment channels failed to deliver the caliber and clearance levels needed to execute on sensitive, high-impact projects.
SOLUTION
Avomind was brought in to solve this highly specific hiring challenge. Our team began by working closely with the client’s local and international HR and compliance teams to define the required candidate profiles, security thresholds, and project demands.
Leveraging our global sourcing network and expertise in hard-to-fill roles, Avomind identified, vetted, and placed several qualified professionals in Germany who met both the technical and security criteria. This included individuals with backgrounds in aerospace, cybersecurity, and operational support, all of whom held the appropriate clearance levels to work on classified projects.
Our deep understanding of regulated industries, combined with a highly targeted recruitment strategy, enabled the client to meet project deadlines, maintain contractual commitments, and expand its presence in a sensitive and strategically important sector.
