You know your trade, we know the market. Together we set the course.
Not a standard placement, but a deliberate step towards your ideal scenario: substantive, personal and future-focused. Discover the sectors we work in, the disciplines we place, and who your point of contact is at FORZ.
Specialists deserve representation
FORZ grew out of the belief that technical specialists deserve better representation than traditional recruitment often gives them. Too often it is about the short term, volume KPIs and fast placements, while recruiters barely know their specialists, their clients or the substance behind the assignment.
We do it differently. We get to know our specialists personally: their field, their ambitions, their trade-offs, their ideal working environment and the projects where they truly come into their own. That lets us talk substance with specialist and client alike, and build partnerships that genuinely fit.
Services
How we support you. From representation to relocation: this is what we arrange around your assignment.
Personal representation
We represent experienced specialists who have already proven their value. Not as a traditional recruitment agency, but as a partner who understands your interests, protects them and presents them professionally. We look at who you are and which assignments suit your experience, ambitions and situation, and we build a lasting partnership centred on your market value, reputation and development.
Assignments & matching
We connect specialists to assignments where their knowledge, experience and personality truly come into their own. Not just availability or job title, but the ideal situation: the right project, the right environment and the level of responsibility, autonomy and complexity that suits you. The result is not a standard match, but an assignment that works for both sides.
Positioning & branding
Many experienced professionals have an impressive track record but find it hard to convey their added value concisely. We help you position your expertise sharply towards the market: CV positioning, profile texts, LinkedIn, photography and personal branding. For self-employed specialists with their own company we also think along about company profiling and presentation.
Rates & negotiation
Experience, responsibility and scarce expertise deserve to be valued properly. We advise on rates, terms and commercial positioning, so your value is well substantiated towards clients. We also guide the negotiation process, or take it off your hands entirely, so agreements stay professional and balanced.
Contracts, administration & compliance
We support the practical and formal side of assignments: contracts, assignment confirmations, time registration, invoicing, documentation and coordination with the client. We also think along on compliance topics such as assignment structures, independent contractor status, liability and the practical application of the Dutch DBA Act, so the ground rules are clear and carefully arranged.
Tax, entrepreneurship & insurance
For self-employed professionals, tax and business choices often play an important role. We think along about entrepreneurship, invoicing, company structure, international situations and tax considerations, and we support specialists who want to start or further professionalise their business. We also advise on suitable insurance, such as professional and general liability and disability cover, and bring in specialist advisers where needed.
Relocation support
For international specialists an assignment often involves far more than the work itself. That is why we also support relocation and settling in: housing, schooling for children, practical guidance on arrival, local registration and coordination with the client. So you land well professionally and personally.
Career & personal development
We look beyond the next assignment. Together we discuss where you want to go, which assignments match your ambitions and how to keep deploying your experience sustainably. That can cover career development, leadership, visibility, work-life balance or strategic choices. Especially for experienced professionals, a sparring partner who knows the market and thinks long term is valuable.
