About Johanna

Senior Talent Acquisition & Executive Search professional with 10+ years of experience supporting luxury houses, fashion brands, beauty leaders and fast-growing companies.

I operate as a strategic Talent partner, not just a recruiter.

From defining hiring roadmaps to building talent pipelines and securing high-impact hires (from key experts to executives), I help organizations structure, accelerate and elevate their recruitment strategy.

My expertise covers:

• Executive & strategic hiring
• Creative & corporate recruitment (fashion, beauty, luxury)
• Talent pipeline structuring
• Recruitment process optimization
• KPI tracking & performance improvement
• Stakeholder management (C-level, Creative Directors, Business Leaders)
• International sourcing

I combine business understanding, aesthetic sensitivity (essential in luxury & creative industries) and data-driven execution.

I work in both project-based and long-term embedded models.
