The opportunity
Why this business works now
Employers use agencies when they need suitable candidates quickly, specialist search capability or flexible staffing without building a large internal recruitment team. An agency can combine permanent placement fees with recurring temporary-staff margins. The plan explains employer onboarding, job orders, sourcing, screening, shortlists, interviews, references, placements, timesheets, payroll and account management.
Permanent and temporary staffing
Placement fees can be combined with recurring workforce margins.
Employer and candidate networks
Strong relationships improve matching speed and service quality.
Process-led recruitment
Briefs, screening and records support consistent placements.
