We build your success in Germany

When Germany becomes an execution bottleneck

Germany is rarely a strategy problem. It becomes a bottleneck when execution lacks clear ownership.

N2L supports international companies operating in or expanding to Germany by taking responsibility for critical execution challenges — structured, time-bound and outcome-focused.

Many international companies are already active in Germany, yet still struggle with day-to-day execution.

Typical issues include visa and relocation delays, candidate dropouts, misalignment between HQ and local requirements, unclear ownership across HR, legal and operations, and slow internal decision loops.

Left unresolved, these challenges quickly turn Germany into an internal blocker with significant financial impact.

OPERATIONAL EXECUTION

Taking ownership of Germany-specific execution issues across teams and stakeholders.

BUILDING ENTITIES

From branches to GmbHs, we coordinate setup, registration, tax, and banking.

TALENT  COORDINATION

Aligning hiring, relocation and HR processes across HQ and local requirements.

GO-TO MARKET

Ensuring local market fit without friction or over-engineering.

Execution ownership

We do not offer classic market-entry consulting, workshops or open-ended advisory support.

Instead, we take temporary operational ownership of Germany-related execution challenges.

Our work is structured as a clearly defined mandate:

  • fixed scope

  • fixed timeframe

  • one accountable partner

No slide decks. No generic roadmaps. No ongoing dependency.

How We Deliver

Embedded operational roles

Execution is delivered through embedded operational roles, integrated into existing teams and processes. This enables fast alignment, continuity and effective decision-making without building permanent internal structures.

Delivered via a German legal entity

The mandate is delivered via N2L GmbH as a German legal entity.
This ensures contractual clarity, compliant invoicing and a reliable operating framework for international companies.

Clear operational ownership

N2L assumes clear responsibility for defined execution areas in Germany.
Instead of fragmented support, there is one accountable operational partner coordinating all relevant activities.

Cross-functional coordination

Depending on scope, we coordinate execution across:

  • HR and talent teams

  • legal and compliance partners

  • external service providers

This prevents handover losses and ensures consistent execution across stakeholders.
