Key Search Expands Team

February 17, 2022 – Basel, Switzerland-headquartered executive search firm Key Search has expanded with the addition of Google search executive David Bizer as director. “As a keynote speaker and an executive recruitment specialist in the technology sector, his passion for company culture is well-known throughout the start-up ecosystem,” the search firm said. “In addition, his experience in talent acquisition and start-up culture make David a perfect fit for the role of director at Key Search – his experience aligns with Key Search’s unique and highly adaptive approach to executive recruitment.”

Mr. Bizer brings decades of valuable experience in global recruiting to the boutique executive search firm. He was previously founder and CEO of Talent Fountain, a boutique consulting firm focused on talent acquisition, talent management and start-up culture. Before Talent Fountain, he was chief people geek at one of Europe’s first start-up accelerators, HackFwd. Mr. Bizer was the first recruiter at Google in Europe, building out the organization from 100 to over 5,000 employees in seven years. Since 2010, he has collaborated with hundreds of emerging start-ups throughout Europe to scale their human capital.

Mr. Bizer began his career in recruitment during the “dawn of the internet,” running college/graduate recruiting for Netscape in Silicon Valley. He has always worked in technology and has over 10 years’ experience focused exclusively on executive search.

“I couldn’t resist the offer from Key Search,” said Mr. Bizer. “Joining a company which places significant resources and investment into both technology and research is a huge draw for me. The service Key Search can provide to clients and candidates alike is not only exceptional but quite unique on the market. Finally, the team is amazing – simply a phenomenal and professional group of people.”

Key Search is a boutique executive search firm with a track record of hiring top executives for well-known brands and start-ups in the digital space. Franziska Palumbo-Seidel is CEO and founder of Key Search. After 12 years of building up digital practices for international boutique agencies and working with some of the world’s most successful and ambitious technology companies, scale-ups, and venture capital firms she decided to bring executive search to the next level by building her own brand.
