This is Middle Point Selections
Middle Point Selections is Middle Point’s specialist executive search label for specialist, senior and management positions within the maritime sector, engineering and technical management.
The label was created from the conviction that executive search requires a different approach from secondment. Whereas secondment can involve presenting professionals for various suitable assignments, a search focuses on one specific position, one organisation and one clear objective: finding the professional who truly fits.
That focus requires specialist market knowledge, a personal approach and consultants who can dedicate themselves fully to the search.
“Executive search requires focus. You are not looking for an available candidate, but for the professional who fits that specific position, the organisation and the ambition behind it.”
— Maarten van Haren, Managing Director Middle Point Selections
Middle Point Selections is being built by Maarten van Haren and Aleksandra Popova. Aleksandra brings many years of recruitment experience and knows both the German market and the maritime domain, as well as Electrical & Automation, from the inside. Drawing on her experience and network, she focuses on identifying and personally approaching professionals who are often not actively looking for their next step.
The collaboration came about at a natural moment. Maarten had been considering for some time how to position executive search as a separate label within Middle Point. When Aleksandra indicated that she was ready for a next step and also had the ambition to build something new, the two ideas came together.
“Sometimes the right idea, the right person and the right moment come together. For us, that was the moment to truly launch Middle Point Selections.”
— Maarten van Haren
With Middle Point Selections, we combine Middle Point’s market knowledge and network with the focus of a dedicated executive search team. Personal, specialist and focused on sustainable matches.
