About Carlson Global Recruitment Limited

Carlson Global Recruitment Limited is a specialist recruitment consultancy focused on delivering quality over quantity.

Founded in 2026, the business supports clients across the plastics, chemicals and engineering sectors, recruiting mid to senior-level professionals across Europe, the United States and Asia.

Rather than flooding hiring managers with CVs, Carlson Global Recruitment takes a highly considered and consultative approach. Time is invested upfront to truly understand each client's business, culture, challenges and long-term goals. This ensures that only carefully selected, well-matched candidates are introduced.

If you are looking for a recruiter who prioritises precision, fit and long-term success over volume, Carlson Global Recruitment is the right partner.

"Quality over quantity is not just a philosophy—it's the foundation of every successful placement we make."

Founder & Director

Birgit Carlson

Born and raised in Berlin, Germany, I moved to the UK in 2007 and now recruit internationally across Europe, the US and Asia, with a strong focus on mid to senior-level positions.

I have worked in recruitment since 2015, specialising in the plastics, chemicals and engineering industries.

My approach is firmly rooted in quality over quantity. I take the time to understand my clients in depth—their business needs, challenges, company culture and the type of candidate who will genuinely succeed within their organisation. Equally, I invest significant time speaking with candidates to ensure alignment before any introduction is made.

As a result, I only submit a limited number of CVs for each role. If you are expecting high-volume candidate submissions, Carlson Global Recruitment may not be the right fit.

If you value thoughtful, targeted recruitment and long-term hires, you are in the right place.

The principles that guide everything we do.
