Initial Situation

Münchmeyer Petersen Capital Markets is a newly founded capital markets boutique with a clear focus on the German medium-sized sector. The goal was to build or expand professional, scalable, and regulatory clean structures from the start. Parallel to organizational development, it was decided to further develop the Tech Hub in a targeted manner. The aim was to establish and continue technological standards in a structured way, reliably support central business processes, and create a scalable, robust foundation for further company expansion.

A key role was sought:

• Multi-Platform & Fullstack Engineer (1 Position)

Challenge

The particular difficulty lay in combining two role profiles in one person:

• Fullstack engineering with simultaneous responsibility for platform and system architecture

• High standards for stability, security, and scalability due to the capital market-related environment

• Startup dynamics with professional and regulated conditions

• Time-critical filling of the position

Approach

The collaboration came about directly through a LinkedIn post. The client became aware of us and consciously chose to work together. The recruitment approach combined:

• Active sourcing via LinkedIn

• A targeted job post

• Close, continuous coordination with the client

Through the exclusive partnership, search strategy, profile requirements, and feedback loops could be implemented with great focus.

Quality & Process Advantages

• Clear definition of a hybrid role profile (Multi-Platform & Fullstack)

• Quick iteration on candidate and client feedback

• Direct line to decision-makers

• Transparent and structured process for all involved

Result

Despite the demanding profile, the position was filled efficiently and precisely:

• 7 profiles presented

• 6 interviews conducted

• 2 offers made

• 1 hiring successfully completed

“The collaboration with Nova Search was characterized from the start by very pragmatic, quick, and professional communication. The pre-selection of candidates was of outstanding quality, and the entire process was extremely efficient for us as a client. The exchange with Aline, in particular, was always on equal footing. She was always accessible and provided the right impetus at the right time.”
