Do you have what it takes to lead more than 20 consultants, be responsible for at least €600.000 of turnover every month and run 2 successful brands?

CLIENT

With more than 10 years of history within the Dutch market, this client managed to create a reputable name for itself. In addition to its reputation as the market leader within its sector, this recruitment firm happens to be well-known for being an amazing employer because of the career opportunities, flexibility and supportive working environment it offers. Even though most renowned recruitment firms seem to be highly KPI driven and have strict guidelines on how business is supposed to be done, the Managing Director happens to be an advocate for a personalized approach and is therefore open to all sorts of suggestions on how to conduct business more effectively.  Because there are is no hierarchy or whatsoever within this organization, you will be directly reporting into the Managing Director of the Benelux. Due to the fact that the consultants appear to be considerably productive already, there is no limit on hiring for now. The MD expects to grow its 98 employees within Benelux at least to 125 employees by the end of this year.
