    As an executive search and IT contract professional, I have over a decade of experience in connecting top-tier talent with leading organizations.

    My professional journey includes significant roles within a globally renowned recruitment brand, which has empowered me to think ambitiously about strategy and communication. Working across diverse regions, markets, and organizations has cultivated a mindset characterized by openness, resilience, and adaptability.

    I adopt a consultative approach when working with customers, emphasizing the importance of long-term relationships founded on trust, professionalism, and confidentiality. By thoroughly understanding the strategies, motivations, and objectives of both parties, I am able to contribute substantial value to the process.

    Beyond my professional pursuits, I find great joy in DJing, playing golf, and immersing myself in live sports events, with a particular passion for Ajax.

    Ultimately, and above all else, I am a proud father to Peppe and Giuli, and a devoted husband to Fleur.

First and foremost I appreciate the honest way Jeffrey Köhnke was able to describe the position and its environment, so that I could make a fair judgement of how it would fit my ambition and background. Also the balanced role he took in (proactively) facilitating me and servicing the employer I found very pleasant and helpful. I recommend Brand New Start to everyone who is looking for a senior partner in matching the right people to the right job!".

    “At Schiphol, I collaborated with Brand New Start / Jeffrey. Through Jeffrey, I was introduced to Schiphol for my role as a Agile Coach and gained experience with his professional and effective approach. Jeffrey understands the requirements of the assignment and the qualities needed to fulfill it well. He responds promptly to inquiries and prepared me effectively for a successful intake. The guidance from screening to the first day of work felt very effective and contributed to a good start at Schiphol. Later on, as a Agile Coach, I requested various open positions from him, both for IT and business profiles. Jeffrey always quickly provides suitable profiles, enabling a role to be filled promptly. His approach is direct and knowledgeable, saving a lot of time in completing the recruitment process. Therefore, I highly recommend Jeffrey as a supplier and sparring partner for filling various technical and business roles."

    Agile Coach @ Schiphol

    “The collaboration with Jeffrey is short and powerful. He is a to the point recruiter and knows how the business is working. He has a good focus on quality, not only on delivering the right CV’s but also in preparing the candidate for the job interview. He gives attention if it is desired, but perhaps more important only if it has added value! Last but not least he is successful in supplying the required / good candidate!".
