Our story
How do you set sail in an industry where no competitor has 1% market share but 100s and 1000s of competitors are fighting over the same clients with little or no differentiation other than personality of the consultant. Our industry is all about: trust, business insight, references and network.
Birn+Partners was founded in 2013 by Mikkel F. Birn with the determination to build a top 10 European company within Executive Search – Management Consulting – Board Services & Education. With a background in HR, sales and top management combined with an MBA and Board Education the road and experience for Birn+Partners was paved. Mikkel’s passion is to build a company where all employees are proud to a part of the culture and DNA. Honesty, integrity and the ability to be near and authentic to clients have always been the mantra allowing us to keep clients and gain referrals to expand.
Over the years we have made several market surveys with 8000 executives to gain market intelligence and know-how to tackle the volatile market conditions and learn from their experiences. The focus groups, interviews, surveys have led to a broad service portfolio in Birn+Partners assisting executives in their full working life cycle.
Our expansion continues and ever since the first day, we have followed our clients internationally. Each year we have established a legal entity and entered a new country. We have primarily grown organically until now and see possible mergers being a part of future growth and expansion. Birn+Partners has always had yearly growth rates above 20%.
It is only when we become the preferred partner as trusted advisor to our customers, we have achieved our goals
