“Helping people has always been my ambition and “people first” has been the company’s ethos from the moment it was established.”
Our Story
I’m Ben Brabers. I’ve been in IT recruitment since 2010, and before that I studied Dutch and British Commercial Law. After a successful career at recruitment firms, I founded Brabers Consultancy in the summer of 2017. For me, this was about taking my knowledge and experience in the sector and setting up a way of working in recruitment that is true to my values.
Helping people has always been my ambition and “people first” has been the company’s ethos from the moment it was established.
This means being fair, transparent, and honest in all dealings with clients and candidates. Respect is the foundation of the business and working together is the key to success. As Brabers grows, these values will remain at the core of everything we do.
Sounds like something you want to be a part of? I look forward to hearing from you.
