Who we are

About us.

Recruitment the way we would want it ourselves. Hands-on, honest and with one dedicated point of contact, since 2006.

The problem with hiring commercial talent: the best people never apply.

You post a vacancy and you wait. What comes in is a pile of CVs from people who were already looking. Exactly the group you would have found yourself.

The numbers are simple: around 20 percent of commercial professionals are open to something new; the other 80 percent are performing, earning well and not looking at job ads. That last group is the one you want. And a bad hire in a commercial role does not cost you a month’s salary, it costs you a year of pipeline.

  • 20 percent open to something new and actively applying
  • 80 percent performing, earning well and not looking at job ads

That is why we chose one field in 2006, and stuck to it.

Sennasearch started in 2006 with a choice we have never changed since: we would rather know one market properly than cover every market a little. Commercial roles are our centre of gravity, and around them we also fill other positions for the companies we work with. We do not fill vacancies by waiting for applications, we fill them by going into the market ourselves.

You do not recognise a good commercial director from a CV. You recognise one by the way they build a deal and get a team performing. You only see that once you have followed a market closely for twenty years. We know that market from the inside. You notice it in the candidates we put forward.

Twenty years on we still do exactly the same thing, only sharper. The same roles, the same way of searching, one method we have been refining all along.


How our search team works, and what you see of it.

For every role that comes in, a team of recruiters and sourcers works the market from Skopje. You deal with one dedicated, Dutch-speaking point of contact who keeps your brief on track, is in touch with candidates every day and stays reachable for as long as the search runs.

What you can hold us to.

We take a position, even when that means we are not the right choice for everyone.

  • We start every search from scratch.

    No CV database. Every search starts with the market as it looks today.

  • We move quickly.

    No unnecessary layers. Call us and you hear back the same day.

  • We work without a black box.

    Every week you see who we are speaking to and what the market is telling us. Including when the news is not good.

  • We call someone a candidate only after we have spoken to them.

    We share profiles without our verdict attached, for your feedback. We put candidates forward one by one, with a write-up and a CV.

We do not send a pile of CVs. We send one person at a time, someone we would hire ourselves.
