11.03.2024 – HR consultancy Robert Walters is expanding its team at its Hamburg office in order to strengthen the IT sector in the long term. The new addition Arne Fietz expands the company's range of services in the IT segment with his specialised expertise.

Arne Fietz is responsible for the Technology division for permanent positions

Arne Fietz joined Robert Walters in mid-February as Manager of the Technology division for permanent positions. Before joining Robert Walters, Fietz was a Senior Manager in IT Recruiting at Michael Page. He now focuses on the recruitment of specialists and managers in the field of technology in Hamburg and the surrounding area.

"I am motivated to use my extensive knowledge and experience at Robert Walters to offer both companies and applicants customised advice. From past successes, I know how important a targeted approach is from the outset when filling IT positions. My aim is to promote long-term partnerships that ensure lasting success for our clients," says Fietz.

Strategic importance for Robert Walters

Thomas Hoffmann, Senior Director North at Robert Walters, emphasises: "In Hamburg, we are seeing a steadily growing demand for qualified software developers, driven by digitalisation and technological progress. Expanding our offering to our customers is therefore the logical consequence of this." According to current data from the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce, around 44% of Hamburg's IT companies are active in the service sector, while a further 35% specialise in software development. These statistics emphasise not only the diversity and broad spectrum of the market, but also the enormous potential for specialised personnel solutions.

With an increase in IT positions advertised in Hamburg of over 7% in the last six months, it is clear that the demand for qualified IT specialists remains high. With the strategic expansion of the team, Robert Walters is ideally positioned to act as a leading provider of IT staffing solutions in Hamburg and to offer innovative solutions for the challenges of digital transformation.
