We are specialized in personnel selection services, human resources and headhunting. We have been in business since 2013 recruiting personnel in the technical, health and engineering sectors for labour markets in: Germany, Switzerland (German speaking), Norway and other countries in northern Europe.
We have an international and multidisciplinary team with proven experience that guarantees us success in finding the ideal candidate based on the specific needs of each organization. 2B1 is a company within the KOMA Group, a language services company operating since 1999. This means we can also offer intensive and specialized language courses for each sector, leading to our candidates achieving the level necessary to work in the destination country. In addition, Komalingua is an official TELC exam centre since 2015.
Viviana Dal Pont
Managing Director of 2B1 and the Koma group. I was born to Italian parents in the beautiful city of Lucerne (Switzerland) where I grew up. I have always had two passions: languages and people. That is why I have trained and continue to train in these fields. I am an expert in HR and business management and psychology (transactional analysis). In order to teach and be a teacher, I studied first at the ECAP in Switzerland and then at the Goethe Institut. Today I also have the title of TELC examiner. I speak German, Italian, Spanish, English and French and I have lived in the Basque Country since 1999. I am a founder of the KOMA Group, which today has 5 companies and more than 240 employees of 20 different nationalities. My role in the company allows me, indeed obliges me, to travel a lot, something I do joyfully as it allows me to maintain contact with my different roots. The idea of 2B1 International Consulting was born during a trip to Berlin with colleagues: to help people find new opportunities and to integrate in other countries. In my free time, which is not much, I try to get to know the world, cultures and gastronomy. Music and a good book also relax me and make me feel good, just like a walk with my dog does.

With a penchant for shared leadership, in scenarios where group members can develop skills such as commitment, ambition or value creation. Expectant and curious about a future with few certainties.

Javier Iñigo
I was born in Lodosa, a town located on the banks of the Alto Ebro in Navarra. There I grew up surrounded by family and friends, who have been with me every step of the way, becoming a fundamental pillar in my life. At the age of 18, I moved to Pamplona to study Business Administration and Management. Once I finished, I decided to take a master's degree in Digital Marketing and ERP in the city of Vitoria. At the same time as I studied, I became increasingly immersed in two worlds that have shaped my way of understanding life and whose great importance I always highlight: sport and psychology.
Álvaro Fontán
Born in Gasteiz, I have a deep love for my city and everything that surrounds it. I am passionate about travelling and getting to know new cultures, as well as sport, two of my great hobbies. I love interacting with people and facing new situations, which allows me to learn and grow. I studied Marketing and Advertising, and I have always been linked to the world of business and sales. In my work, I like to be disciplined and organised, but I also really enjoy having a laugh or having a drink with my colleagues. It is a pleasure to be able to contribute to the day-to-day running of companies, helping them to find the perfect profile for their needs, as well as helping talents to find their place.
Julen Moratinos
My training in economics, international trade and logistics has given me a perspective of the degree of interrelation that exists in the business world, the need to be fast and efficient when dealing with any process within it, as well as the importance of human capital. This perspective has led me to be part of 2B1 as a link between the client and talent. My goal is to be in direct contact with companies, understanding what their short, medium and long-term needs are in order to find the best professionals within each sector.
Sonja Merlingen
I was born in Salzburg (Austria) and I have a degree in philology. I have been living in Italy for almost 20 years because there must always be sunshine in my life. Between 2007 and 2012, I worked as a German reader at the University of Macerata. Getting my students to have a passion for German is a professional challenge: sharing this language with them is without a doubt challenging but also fascinating. From my teaching experience to date, I have come to believe that the cultural aspects of a language should never be underestimated. Therefore, we also deal with current news and lifestyle issues in my classes. I have been an official "Goethe Institut" examiner for levels A1-C1 since 2011 and I obtained the exam qualification for the TELC exams in 2015. As director of the school of Komalingua Italia Servicios Lingüísticos, a project I took on in 2013, I have also been involved in the process of recruiting candidates and I am the reference person for both candidates and clients in Germany and Switzerland.
Sandra Ludwig
Recruiting Department Germany. I was born in the south of Germany, but I always wanted to live and work in Spain. Fate brought me to Navarra in the north of Spain, where I live with my family. In 2B1 I am involved in the selection of healthcare personnel for hospitals in Germany, I am in charge of the entire homologation and visa process, I can assess the German level of candidates and I help them prepare for job interviews.
