Kingfisher

Kingfisher is a recruitment agency based in Belgium that specialises in connecting businesses with top-tier talent across multiple sectors. Founded by Ben Van Beek and Philippe Loos, the company takes a distinctly personal approach to recruitment, investing time to understand both clients and candidates beyond surface-level qualifications. Rather than operating as a typical recruitment consultancy, Kingfisher focuses on identifying the perfect match by considering not only technical expertise but also cultural fit and long-term growth potential. The agency offers tailored collaboration, headhunting searches and transparent communication throughout the recruitment process.

Kingfisher's core specialisation spans five primary sectors. In IT, the agency recruits across leadership and management, infrastructure and security, development, quality assurance, testing and analytical and data roles. Engineering recruitment encompasses leadership and management, quality and health and safety, electrical and mechanical, maintenance and service, construction and civil engineering, software and automation, process improvement, sales and services, and research and development positions. Supply Chain expertise includes administration and assistant roles, sales and services, planning and coordination, leadership and management, purchasing and procurement, and analytical and strategic positions. Finance and Legal recruitment covers reporting, data and business intelligence, analytical roles, leadership and management, accounting, controlling, legal specialisms, and banking and insurance sectors. The agency also recruits across Sales and Marketing functions.

Kingfisher operates from two physical locations in Belgium, with offices in Herentals and Zeebrugge, serving clients and candidates throughout Belgium and the wider region. The company's approach distinguishes it from competitors through genuine partnership, deep sector knowledge and a commitment to understanding the unique dynamics and requirements of each role and industry. By combining technical expertise with market insight, Kingfisher delivers recruitment solutions that go beyond standard placements to create meaningful, lasting professional matches.
