An honest and transparent view of the labor market: in conversation with Joachim Klein Molekamp of Loyal Interim

Loyal Interim is a staffing company that values honesty and transparency. Chief Business Development and shareholder Joachim Klein Molekamp sheds light on the needs of the new generation of professionals, in an ever-changing labor market. He also explains how partnerships, such as the one with HeadFirst Group, contribute to their growth and success.

Flexibility and agility are crucial, both for organizations and professionals. As a result, the need for external workers is increasing, while new laws and regulations do not make hiring self-employed workers particularly attractive. This places secondment companies under pressure. "Professionals receive multiple offers and are more likely to change jobs. In addition, projects take longer, while the length of tenure decreases. This creates a special market force. As a service provider, it is then extra important to position the organization well in the labor market. Fortunately, we see opportunities for Loyal Interim because our model suits a new generation of professionals who want freedom, variety and fair remuneration. We see this in the many professionals who have been with us for more than 6 years. That is quite unique for secondment," says Klein Molekamp.

Happy people stay loyal longer

Loyal Interim aims to grow to 1,000 Loyals (professionals) rating them with a 9+ by 2030. Klein Molekamp says, "To achieve that, you have to understand the importance of being a good employer. Our transparent business model, in which we are open about salaries, among other things, emphasizes honesty and equality. Our loyals have responsibility for their own results and can set their own course and terms of employment. In addition, we look in particular at personality, skills and ambitions during recruitment. As a result, the ratio of men to women is proportional and people of more than 15 different nationalities work for us."

"At Loyal Interim, people are the focus, both in the approach to loyals and in collaborations with other parties."

And those different nationalities are respected. For example, Klein Molekamp shares an example of an event during Ramadan, where they adjusted the program and dined together after sunset. "In the end, we are one Loyal together. Freedom, flexibility and autonomy are key, and this fits perfectly with the needs of the new generation of professionals. We call that the comfort of being a good employer, with benefits of entrepreneurship."

Successful partnership

Currently, over 200 of these happy loyals are working on an assignment at 25 different clients from HeadFirst Group's vast network. In fact, Loyal Interim and HeadFirst Group work together at a variety of clients. "We share knowledge and developments to better serve the clients. In this we notice that there is proactive thinking and fast switching. We see HeadFirst Group as a strategic partner and a crucial part of Loyal Interim's success," Klein Molekamp concludes.
