What Teamconsult does

Teamconsult is a privately held HR consulting firm headquartered in Prague, Czech Republic, founded in 1993. It operates three core service lines: Executive Search (Direct Search), Outplacement and Talent Management. Its delivery model is relationship-led B2B professional services, with consulting fees charged on a per-engagement basis typical of the executive search industry. The client base is concentrated in multinational corporations, with over 50% of clients described as foreign investors, primarily from the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), operating across manufacturing, trade, services and financial sectors.

The firm runs its own operating entities in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, giving it a direct-delivery footprint across Central Europe. It is a member of two international executive search networks: IIC Partners (since founding in 1993) and Career Star Group (since 2013), and partners with Glasford International. It layers structured behavioural assessment instruments - Facet5, Process Communication Model (PCM) and Thomas International Assessment (TIA) - onto search and outplacement engagements, and uses AI-supported research tools for candidate identification and market mapping. The firm maintains a multilingual website covering five languages, reflecting its foreign-investor client mix.

Teamconsult's business model is project-based and fee-driven, with revenue tied to retained or contingent executive search mandates, outplacement programmes and broader talent management engagements. The firm employs between 11 and 50 people; average consultant tenure is stated at over 17 years, suggesting a stable senior practitioner base. Managing Director Oliver Schmitt leads the firm. The sub-50 headcount, three-country footprint and network memberships place Teamconsult in the boutique executive search segment of the Central European HR services market.
