HeadFirst Group is rock solid in second place in the Flexmarkt Turnover Ranking Top-100 2021 published last week. The prestigious ranking lists the hundred largest flex companies in the Netherlands based on their turnover in 2020. With revenues of over 1.5 billion euros, HeadFirst Group strengthens its position as the largest intermediary and MSP service provider in the Benelux and permanent Top 3 player in the overall flex market.
HeadFirst Group and Between Staffing Group, listed separately but part of HeadFirst Group since November 2020, achieved gross sales of 1.515 billion euros. A strong result, especially in an eventful year like 2020. Vincent van der Mark, CFO at HeadFirst Group: "The organizations achieved 2% organic revenue growth, in a year in which we were confronted with the coronavirus. That makes us incredibly proud. In 2019, we reached the €1 billion revenue milestone for the first time and have been steaming ahead strongly ever since. Due to our diverse portfolio of clients and strong presence in the niche of highly skilled professionals, including many IT professionals, the impact of the coronavirus has been limited."
Full service HR service provider
In 2020, HeadFirst Group made the transition to full service HR service provider by developing as an advisor to clients on recruitment and hiring issues. "We offer data-driven solutions to optimize and future-proof the recruitment process of personnel - flex and permanent," says Han Kolff, CEO at HeadFirst Group.
This has led to demonstrable success. Existing large master contracts have been extended and new European tender procedures won at, among others, Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, Ministry of Justice and Security, Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, Municipality of Schiedam and Leiden University Medical Center Leiden. "The new clients we have welcomed are great news for the independent professionals and suppliers in our network. All open assignments appear on Holland's largest assignment platform: Select.
