We help businesses to find, attract

Looking fortalent?
A great match?
Are you looking for your next unique and “out of this world” talent who ticks off all the boxes and fits all of your sky-high criteria? We’re sorry to break this to you - but you are looking for a five-legged unicorn that probably doesn't exist. But what we can help you find is a great match that corresponds with your culture, purpose, values, and ambitions. A match where you can feel the chemistry and common ground.
The mission at Placed is not to place a candidate in your organisation that just looks good on paper - but instead to find you your greatest match.
Placed is about people.
As a company Placed is based on trust, orderliness and methodology, and we treat all people as equals and with respect. Companies can only be successful in the long run, if they understand that they need to be inclusive and diverse to be able to attract the talent of tomorrow. At Placed, we believe in the power of diversity to foster innovation and value creation for customers and the society in general.
This is why we believe in loyalty to our commitments and agreements with clients and candidates and take a holistic view of the whole person. For us, a great match is when a client and candidate enter a beneficial partnership where both parties can grow and achieve their goals. And it is our clear ambition and promises to find and attract the best person to your organisation.
