Samuel Ju und Dr. Clemens Reichel

Clemens combines HR expertise with the art of entrepreneurship: Through his experience at Roland Berger and as a self-employed headhunter, the idea was born to make recruiting easier, more transparent and above all more digital - even if it means torpedoing his own profession.

He shared these thoughts in 2009 in a Frankfurt café with Samuel, who founded his first digital start-up while still studying law and has since made several successful exits. After 10 years in the start-up scene, he can be called a serial entrepreneur and digital visionary.

Together they founded Mobilehead and developed an online platform for the placement of lawyers: Today Legalhead supports more than 12.000 candidates. The sister platforms focus on the areas of medicine, care, hotel business, interim management, real estate, taxes and finance.
