Reppert & Schaefer

What Reppert & Schaefer does

Reppert & Schäfer Personaldienstleistungen GmbH is a German staffing and personnel services company founded in 1998 and headquartered in Nuremberg, with a branch office in Regensburg. The company provides two core services: Zeitarbeit (temporary staffing/employee leasing) and Arbeitsvermittlung/Personalvermittlung (permanent placement) for businesses in industry, commerce, trade, and administration sectors across the Nuremberg and Regensburg regions of Bavaria. It holds permanent (unbefristete) employee leasing permits issued by the Bundesagentur für Arbeit for both locations — Nuremberg since 2003 and Regensburg since 2005 — and is a member of the iGZ Interessenverband Deutscher Zeitarbeitsunternehmen, the German temporary employment companies association.

The business operates a traditional regional staffing model. Revenue is generated through transaction fees on both temporary worker placements (where the company employs the worker and leases them to client businesses, charging per deployment period) and permanent recruitment placements (where the company earns a placement fee upon successful hire). Pricing is quote-based and negotiated individually per client and role, with no public pricing tiers. The company serves both enterprise clients — evidenced by published testimonials from Siemens, Eurowings, INA Schaeffler, and RUAG — and SMBs in skilled trades (Malerbetrieb Müller, Schreinerei Gruber, Elektro Kaas, Olschewski Heizung-Sanitär). Candidates are sourced across 13+ occupational categories spanning metalworking, transport, painting, machining, woodworking, electrical, healthcare, welding, office/administration, and more, with the website available in 14 languages suggesting cross-border candidate sourcing from Eastern Europe, Turkey, and Central Asia.

The company is privately held and owner-managed by three managing directors — Sebastian Dwornik, Norbert Reppert, and Dieter Schäfer — with no external investment, no parent company, and no M&A activity in its history. Its technology stack consists of a standard job portal, online application forms, and a Kirby CMS website with conventional third-party integrations (Google Maps, reCAPTCHA, Google Analytics, Matomo); no AI/ML capabilities, mobile apps, APIs, or proprietary technology are disclosed. Distribution is entirely direct through the two physical offices, with marketing relying on the company website, customer testimonials, and recognition badges (Kununu Top Company 2023 and 2024, IHK Member Recognition 2022). The company's last documented strategic events were the 2008 Nuremberg headquarters relocation and the 2018 20th anniversary milestone.
