Julia Livintseva
@julialivintseva
Seasoned executive search professional specializing in global senior talent acquisition.
GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned executive search and management selection professional with over a decade of experience in direct sourcing, passive candidate engagement, and closing senior hires across Europe, the Middle East and globally. I have implemented and automated recruitment processes, launched ATS systems rapidly, and built strong international candidate pipelines that resulted in multiple senior and C-level placements.
Throughout my career I have led small recruiting teams (up to 5 FTE), delivered high-impact searches for technology, fintech, healthcare, construction and consumer clients, and provided leadership assessment and coaching using tools such as Hogan. Key wins include assembling full management teams and closing executive roles like CFO, CTO, Sales Director, Chief Architect and VP-level hires for major organizations.
I bring a pragmatic, process-driven approach to hiring, combining Boolean/direct sourcing expertise with competence-based interviewing and leadership assessment. I am open to recruitment roles where I can drive strategic talent acquisition, build or scale teams, and improve hiring operations across international markets.
