About Jens

Professional. Qualified. Solution-oriented.

I am Jens Witte, Business Economist (BA) and certified psychological counselor – your partner for practical and effective HR solutions. With experience from a wide variety of industries, I support companies in growth, change, and strategic alignment.

Interim Management: Taking responsibility, building HR teams, optimizing processes – for example at EA Elektroautomatik, where I secured growth and laid the foundation for employee retention.

Change Management: Successful support of restructurings and mergers – as at Sogefi, where I managed a complex restructuring.

Coaching & Consulting: Tactical, strategic, or personal – I support executives and teams in their goal-oriented development, in projects or beyond.

HR Strategy & Digitalization: Building HR teams, digitizing processes – I advance your HR topics and prepare companies for the future.


Since July 2024, I have been the managing partner of Witte PersonalBeratung & Strategie GmbH – let's seize opportunities together.
