View company profile

Sidekick Network emerged from a clear recognition in the ERP and IT consulting space: finding the right expert for complex deployment projects was notoriously difficult. Traditional recruitment agencies focused on matching resumes to job descriptions, missing the nuanced reality of what makes IT projects successful. The founders realized that successful ERP rollouts and digital transformations require more than technical skills - they demand professionals who align with project dynamics and company culture.

Since its founding, Sidekick Network has built a specialized recruiting approach that prioritizes people over profiles. Through a rigorous four-step process encompassing Request, Matching, Customer Interview, and active Operation support, the company ensures both clients and experts achieve lasting success. With offices in Dresden and Bonn, plus a new expansion into Hungary, Sidekick Network has become the trusted partner for major enterprises like Deutsche Telekom, Volkswagen, Roche, Fresenius, and BPW. Their community of selected experts brings extensive field knowledge from successful projects across Europe.
