LinkedIn vs. Executive Transition

The best leadership roles are posted on the company's own site first — and many never leave it.

“Manager” means anything — Account, Social Media, ProjectOnly real leadership: people, budget, responsibility

Who this is NOT for.

We'll be blunt, because it saves you 49 €: if you don't lead people, don't join.

  • Account, Product, Project or Key Account “Managers” without a team. The US meaning of manager isn't ours.
  • Team leads, group leads, shift leads. We start one level higher.
  • Juniors, trainees, working students and interns.
  • Anyone looking for “something with management”.

Who it IS for.

  • Heads of and Abteilungsleiter ready for the next seat.
  • Directors, VPs and Bereichsleiter.
  • Geschäftsführer, C-level and board members — including those who can't be seen looking.

Three levels. Nothing below.

Manager in the German sense: a Führungskraft with real responsibility. Every title on the board is classified into one of three levels.

  1. 01

    C-Level · Geschäftsführung · Vorstand

    You run the company or sit at the top table. CEO, CFO, Geschäftsführer, Vorstand, Managing Director.

  2. 02

    You lead leaders. Director Sales DACH, Bereichsleiter Operations, VP Engineering, Werkleiter, Niederlassungsleiter.

    —
  3. 03

    Head of · Abteilungsleitung

    You own a department — people, budget, results. Head of Finance, Leiter Produktion, Leitung Personal.

How it works

  1. 1

    We crawl the source

    Every day our crawlers read company career sites and applicant-tracking systems — Personio, Workday, SuccessFactors, SmartRecruiters and more — plus the public register of the Bundesagentur für Arbeit.

  2. 2

    We keep only managers

    Every title is classified in the German sense of Führungskraft. Account Managers out. Team leads out. What's left is leadership.

  3. 3

    You apply direct

    Filter by level, region and function, then apply on the company's own site — no middleman, no 200-applicant queue.

Priced for a leadership search. No traps.

Full access to every leadership role on the board. All prices include 19 % VAT.

Be Wonderful — Dr. Bruno J. Weidl (book cover)
Why we built it

Built by an executive-search partner.

Dr. Bruno J. Weidl has spent 25 years in executive search — more than 10,000 leadership interviews and 500+ top-tier placements.

He knows where the good leadership roles actually live: on company career sites, long before — and often instead of — a job board. Executive Transition puts that map in your hands.

And when you're ready for a retained search or a confidential conversation, Bruno is one email away.

Questions

What counts as a manager here?

Manager in the German sense: a Führungskraft with real leadership responsibility — people, budget, results. Concretely: Head of / Abteilungsleitung, Director / Bereichsleitung / VP, and Geschäftsführung / C-level / Vorstand. Titles that say “Manager” but lead nobody (Account, Product, Project, Key Account, Social Media) are filtered out — and so are team leads.

Which countries?

Germany first: every role on the board is located in Germany or remote from Germany. Austria and Switzerland are next.

Where do the jobs come from?

Directly from company career sites and the applicant-tracking systems behind them, plus the public job register of the Bundesagentur für Arbeit. Not from LinkedIn, not from Indeed, not from recruiter reposts.

How fresh is it?

Every source is re-crawled daily. When a posting disappears from the company's site, it disappears from the board.

Can I try it first?

Yes. The preview shows real, current roles for free. Full access unlocks every role and the direct apply links.

Can I cancel?

Yes. The monthly subscription can be cancelled anytime and ends with the paid month — via “Cancel contracts here” in the footer, via “Manage subscription” on the board, or by email. The 3- and 12-month passes are one-time payments: they end automatically and never renew.

Your next seat is already posted — on the company's own site.
