Supporting every step of your private credit recruitment journey
Germany has become a key market for private credit in Europe. The country combines established financial institutions with a growing set of alternative lenders that focus on structured and asset-based lending. Selby Jennings operates within this environment, giving us access to talent that understands German regulation, local credit behaviour, and cross-border deal flow. This makes Germany a solid base for firms that need people who work with accuracy and handle detailed lending work.
Diverse pool of private credit talent
Germany attracts professionals with backgrounds in private credit, direct lending, and debt across Europe and global markets. Many have experience with non bank investments and multi country transactions, which gives them a broad view of structured lending and risk management. This range helps us introduce candidates who meet technical expectations and fit naturally into your organisation.
Specialised knowledge in private credit lending
Private credit in Germany calls for a strong grasp of small and medium businesses, direct lending structures, regulation, and risk frameworks. We work with candidates who can complete detailed assessments, structure deals that fit German market conditions, and manage portfolios with discipline. You gain access to people who add practical skill and informed thinking from day one.
Personalised private credit recruitment
We build each search around your hiring priorities. Our work covers direct lending, mezzanine financing, distressed debt, and structured credit. We consider cultural fit, long term value, and the operational needs of teams working in Germany. This approach helps you build stable teams that can adapt as the market shifts.
Long-term partnerships
Our support continues after the hire. We offer insight on compensation trends, diversity planning, and changes in the German credit market. As your organisation develops, we stay involved, helping you add capability, identify future leaders, and respond to new talent demands. This ongoing partnership strengthens your ability to build and maintain strong private credit teams in Germany.
