Who we are

Tobias Arco-Valley
Founder of CLATTON HEADHUNTERS
More than 15 years in executive search, with a focus on finance and tax positions in technology-driven industry.
I am Tobias Graf Arco-Valley, founder of CLATTON HEADHUNTERS. For more than 15 years I have worked in executive search, with a clear focus: the precise placement of finance and tax positions in technology-driven industry.
What sets me apart is the combination of deep expertise and a fine sense for personalities, always in the context of the individual corporate culture. I do not work by the watering-can principle, but in a targeted, honest and persistent way. It is not about quantity, but about quality and genuine, lasting collaboration. Whether specialist, manager or C-level, I find personalities who truly fit the company.
I see myself not as a classic service provider, but as a long-term partner. My network is resilient, my experience well-founded and my standard clear: to move companies forward sustainably. CLATTON stands for loyalty, reliability, discretion and for executive search from a single source. We work internationally, in German and English.
