Flexpeople

Flexpeople describes itself as the place where flexibility and finance come together, and it works under the line van ambitie naar droombaan. The company offers four services to employers and professionals. Detachering places a professional on assignment. Detavast starts as a secondment and converts into a permanent contract with the client. Werving en Selectie handles permanent recruitment, and Screening checks candidates before they start. Registration is free for professionals, who then get free help finding the right job and free access to extensive course options, and Flexpeople approaches them directly with the vacancies it thinks they will want. Employers place a vacancy through the site. The company also operates a Flexpeople franchise and a referral scheme that lets people earn from their own network.

Its expertise is set out as five areas: Bancair, Financieel, Landbouw, Overheid, and Ruimtelijke ordening en Milieu. The roles it advertises sit in zakelijk financieren and in Control and Risk, and it publishes a salarisscan for the publiek domein so candidates can benchmark pay in public sector roles. Its own content reinforces that focus, with articles on why people choose to work in the financial sector, what a financieel controller actually does, five application tips for finance professionals and how to write a successful open application.

Flexpeople places people at what it calls gerenommeerde organisaties, and the mix of banking, government and environmental planning expertise points to a client base that spans both private financial institutions and Dutch public bodies. The company does not publish an office address on its site. Contact runs through an online form, and free registration needs only a name, a telephone number and an email address before a consultant makes contact with suitable vacancies.
