Peter Dudgeon   Premium-Mitglied

Peter Dudgeon, born in London, was educated in Vienna and Manchester, where he studied biochemistry at Manchester University. He then spent his early career in the City of London in Financial Services under a Management Trainee programme. He has made full use of this early background in his years in Retained Search, especially in Germany.

In 1977, Peter decided to further his career in the recruitment industry and to this end spent some time with such leading Recruitment Consultancies/Agencies as Drake Personnel, Hestair S.O.S. Bureau Group and S.C.R. in London. He developed a specialisation in the High Tech and Financial Services sectors.

Peter “graduated” to Retained Search within these sectors in the early 1980’s with a major British search firm also based in London. In 1984 this firm wished to open an office in Germany. Because of his earlier background and his knowledge of German, he was asked to open the new office and moved with his family to Munich – where he has established himself as a leading Search Consultant specialising in High Tech.

In April 1991, Peter formed his own practice – PDC / Peter Dudgeon Consulting. He became an active member of the Cornerstone International Group of Search Practices in 2000.

Peter is bilingual in German and English and over the last 20 years has integrated completely into the German business culture. He has established many contacts in Germany by being a member of the American Chamber of Commerce in Germany, in addition to the Anglo-Bavarian Club Munich and the American-German Business Club.

Peter continues to support his clients actively as Principal Consultant using his experience and skills to help service - together with his team - the whole of the German and Austrian market. He provides a solid base for his international partners in the region and also as a Coach to those candidates partaking in his Career Counselling and Outplacement services.For further information see www.pdc.de
