Kai Matthias Liebe's international education included spells at the Lyceum Alpinum Zuoz (CH) and the Hochalpines Institut in Ftan (CH). He completed his dissertation at a medium-sized, owner-managed commercial enterprise in Hamburg and subsequently went to Switzerland for three-and-a-half years to work for an owner-managed industrial holding company operating on the international stage. Initially he was in charge of Corporate Development, later on assuming responsibility for International Business Development. Next he moved to Munich to work for a leading global, listed Anglo-American recruitment consultancy, where he rose to become team leader for the Finance, Human Resources and Industry practice groups in Southern Germany. From here, he was head-hunted by a leading, owner-managed German executive search consultancy seeking to establish its Munich site. Focussing on the industry and professional services sectors, Kai Matthias Liebe worked to recruit managing directors, managing and supervisory board members on behalf of national and international clients. His previous experience and the fact that he himself is from a family of entrepreneurs made Kai Matthias Liebe acutely aware of the need for specialist consulting with the emphasis on SMEs. He lost no time in putting this idea into practice. Kai Matthias Liebe is a founder of the recruitment consulting company Liebe · Sutor · Gawlowski.

Markus Sutor began his studies in business management at Munich's Ludwig Maximilian University before completing his degree at the distance-learning university in Hagen, thus enabling him to fulfil his professional obligations at the same time. He was involved in a number of start-up projects during his student days. Among other things, he founded a printing service company with operations throughout Germany and a local graphics & advertising agency, both of which he sold in 2009/2010. His other investments have included nationally renowned companies based in the food and IT sector, in which he is a silent partner. During his many years of entrepreneurial activity he gleaned an in-depth knowledge of company set-up, expansion and personnel management, and is now a managing partner at LSG & Kollegen GmbH. His extensive experience in the field of owner-managed SMEs made him an expert in the “problem area” of company succession and the existing gap in placing managers who are a perfect match for the company in question. This gave him the idea of providing a consulting service tailored specifically to these requirements. In addition to his work as a managing partner, Markus Alfons Sutor's specialist know-how and network are put to good use in the field of executive search in the Consumer Goods sector. Markus Sutor is a founder of the recruitment consulting company Liebe · Sutor · Gawlowski.
