Ulrich Heßberger

Ulrich Heßberger is an Associate Partner who places senior executives and board members in such areas as engineering, sales, marketing and supply chain.

With extensive prior experience in sales management across insurance and retail, Ulrich transitioned his well-honed people skills to the recruitment game in 2016. He hit the ground running, climbing through seniority levels while handling assignments within the automotive, electronics, sales and marketing practices.

At Page Executive since January 2024, Ulrich is further stamping his authority in his specialist industries, concentrating on senior positions with a technical focus. He’s also an active player behind the scenes, getting involved in projects to help disadvantaged young people and taking on speaker roles for campaigns and events.

Ulrich’s track record boasts an impressive mix of quality and quantity, but he never loses sight of the importance of relationship building — a trait that often leads to repeated business. He thrives in the autonomy of his role and loves getting to the essence of an organisation’s needs before embarking on his search. This invariably leads to high-quality shortlists and companies agreeing with Ulrich’s first-choice candidate. As well as his stellar network and excellent industry knowledge, his honesty, positivity and passion leave a lasting memory in his clients.

Ulrich takes sports seriously and, when he leaves the office, you can usually find him out running or on the golf course. Weekends are for mini trips with his two daughters and his wife before winding down by cooking both traditional and adventurous dishes for the family.
