Working with us

What does Global Staff Hire do?

We’re a recruitment partner. Specialist recruiters, supported by smart matching, help businesses hire permanent, contract and leadership talent and help professionals find roles that genuinely fit.

Alongside recruitment we build dedicated remote teams, run day-to-day marketplace operations and set up systems and automation — so one partner can support several parts of your business.

How are you different from a typical recruitment agency?

Every recommendation is made by a specialist who knows the field, not just a keyword match. You get focused shortlists with notes, regular updates on a rhythm you agree, and clear communication with every candidate we introduce.

Why work with us
Which kinds of roles do you recruit for?

We support permanent, contract and remote roles across a range of functions — from technical and finance specialists to leadership appointments.

If a role sits outside what we do well, we’ll tell you at the start rather than take it on anyway.

Who will I actually be working with?

A named point of contact who knows your brief, answers your questions and keeps you updated — not a rotating inbox.

For employers

How does the hiring process work?

It follows four clear steps. Discover: we learn the role, the team and the culture. Match: smart matching widens the search and a specialist reviews every profile. Connect: we arrange interviews and share feedback both ways. Hire: we support the offer, acceptance and onboarding.

How it works
How much does it cost?

It depends on the service and the role. Fees, scope and timelines are agreed with you in writing before any work starts, so there are no surprises later.

How quickly will I see candidates?

It varies with the role, the market and how specialised the skills are. At the briefing stage we’ll give you a realistic timeline — and tell you early if anything about the role makes it harder to fill.

Can you help with contract or interim roles?

Yes. Contract staffing is one of our core services, for short projects, cover or specialist skills you need for a defined period.

Do you handle leadership and executive hiring?

Yes. Executive search is run discreetly and research-led, for leadership and senior appointments.

Executive search
What happens if a hire doesn’t work out?

Talk to us as early as you can — we’ll check in after your new hire starts so issues surface quickly. Any replacement or ongoing support terms are set out clearly in your agreement before we begin.

For candidates

Do I have to pay to work with you?

No. Our recruitment support for candidates is free — we’re paid by the employers we work with.

How do I apply for a role?

Browse our open roles and apply to any that fit — each job has its own page with a short application form. You can also share your CV with us, and a recruiter will get in touch when a suitable role comes up.

Will you send my CV to employers without asking?

No. We’ll always talk to you about a role and get your agreement before introducing you to an employer.

Will I hear back after applying or interviewing?

Yes. Clear communication with the people we introduce is one of our commitments — we’ll keep you updated and share feedback whenever we can.

Can you help me find remote work?

Yes. Many roles we work on are remote or hybrid, and some candidates join dedicated remote teams we build for clients.

Our services

What is a dedicated remote team?

Full-time professionals who work only on your business, in your tools and on your priorities. We recruit and onboard them, then check in regularly — so you get the output of a team without building the infrastructure.

Remote Teams
What does Marketplace Ops cover?

The day-to-day running of your online marketplaces and store: listings, orders, inventory, customer messages, pricing checks and reporting — handled by a trained operator or team.

Marketplace Ops
What kind of work can you automate?

Repetitive, rule-based work — copying information between tools, routing enquiries, refreshing reports, creating records. We map the process first and keep people in the loop wherever judgement matters.

Systems & Automation
Will you work in our existing tools?

Yes. Our teams work in your tools and accounts, with access you agree and can remove at any time. We only suggest something new when there’s a clear reason.

Can we combine services?

Yes — that’s one of the main reasons clients work with us. For example, we can hire a key role, build a remote support team and automate the busywork around them, with one point of contact.
