About Us

A single global firm for international hiring.

Cross-border recruitment done properly takes more than a directory of local partners. It takes one accountable firm with real market knowledge across every region you hire into.

One firm, one standard

Most cross-border recruitment happens through referrals between local agencies who barely know each other. Different intake, different screening, different reporting, different quality bar. What arrives on your desk depends on which agency your first search happened to reach.

Recruitment Companies runs one desk, one standard, and one accountable consultant across every country we place into. Same intake brief. Same credential-verification depth. Same ranked-shortlist format. Same day-30 and day-90 onboarding follow-up. Whether you are hiring a Bay Area engineer, a Sydney sales director, a Berlin operations lead or a Singapore CFO, you deal with the same firm.

What we place

Permanent hires across professional and executive levels. Dedicated remote employees for businesses building distributed teams. Cross-border executive appointments where the search needs coordination across multiple markets. Direct-hire onto your entity or via our employer-of-record partners where the local structure does not exist yet.

Who we work with

Founders, GMs, hiring managers and executive teams at technology companies, professional-services firms, industrial businesses and family-office holdings who need serious hires across multiple countries and do not have the time or infrastructure to manage six local vendors.

Why one global desk wins

  • One intake call covers every country in the brief, not one call per country
  • Consistent shortlist format across every market so comparison is honest
  • One consultant accountable for every hire, no vendor-blame chain
  • Single fee structure across the programme, not surprise per-country rates
  • Coordinated multi-country programmes handled as one search, not six
  • Standard onboarding follow-up at day thirty and day ninety in every country

Services in detail

What each service actually covers.

01

International Recruitment

In-country permanent placement across every professional discipline. When you need a hire on the ground in a specific country, we run the search with a country-specialist consultant who is fluent in the local market, salary bands, notice-period conventions and credential ecosystem for the role you are filling.

What is included:

  • Country-specialist intake brief, returned in writing within 24 hours
  • Sourced from active in-country network and passive-market outreach
  • Local-currency salary benchmarking against realistic market rates
  • Ranked shortlist of three to five candidates with our written notes on each
  • Credential verification against the local professional-body records
  • Right-to-work confirmation and notice-period position documented
  • Offer coordination and counter-offer support through to signed acceptance
  • Day-30 and day-90 onboarding follow-up with both sides

Fee: standard percentage of first-year package in local currency, quoted transparently at intake.

02

Global Remote Hiring

Full-time dedicated remote employees sourced globally for businesses building distributed teams. Not gig work, not freelance capacity, not shared-agency utilisation. Your remote employee works only for you, on your schedule, on your systems, inside your team.

What is included:

  • Sourcing across vetted talent pools in India, the Philippines, Egypt, Pakistan, Kenya, LATAM, Eastern Europe and South Africa
  • Region-matched to your working-hours coverage and language requirements
  • Skills-tested on a live discipline-appropriate task before shortlist
  • English-verified in written submission and live video interview
  • Home-office and connectivity setup confirmed before introduction
  • Two independent references contacted and confirmed
  • Two hiring structures walked through: direct-hire cross-border or via our employer-of-record partner in the talent’s country
  • Day-30 and day-90 follow-up to make sure the placement settles

Fee: fixed placement fee per remote hire, or managed-monthly fee for volume programmes. All quoted at intake in USD.

03

Cross-border Executive Search

Retained search for senior appointments where the ideal candidate could sit in any of several countries. CEO, CFO, COO, CRO, general-manager and country-managing-director appointments run by senior consultants with genuine board and executive-search experience.

What is included:

  • Full executive-search discovery: business context, board dynamics, package structure, and success criteria
  • Retained search across multiple candidate markets simultaneously
  • Discreet approach to senior candidates in current employment
  • Detailed candidate reports covering track record, motivation, references and package position
  • Shortlist presentation to hiring board or executive committee
  • Assessment and reference deep-dive on final candidates
  • Offer structuring, counter-offer management and start-date logistics
  • Post-placement executive-onboarding coaching for the first ninety days

Fee: retained-search fee structure (third-third-third) in the client’s currency of choice, agreed at engagement.
