We build the teams behind Romania's tech & GBS centers.

Three things, and all three are checkable. First, we measure our work by what happens after the hire: the five bank IT leaders we placed are still in role five years later, and the 20-person design team we built in three weeks is almost intact after three. Second, we recruit with our own market data, from 30,000+ interviews and 15+ years of salary and employment behavior research, so every search starts with a map of who exists and at what price. Third, we've been doing only this, in Romania, since 2001: 7,500+ placements and 45+ tech and business services centers built from the first hire. Most firms offer one of these. We can show all three.

From delivered projects: 90 employees in nine months for a new tech center, hired fully remotely in 2020; 60 senior engineers in four months through Recruitment Sprints; 20 senior UI/UX designers and nine senior C++ engineers in three weeks each; 25 multilingual support specialists in two months; a bank's complete IT leadership team in about four months. A single specialist role typically closes in four to eight weeks, depending on how scarce the profile is.

That is most of our briefs. Recent examples: a software developer role a client had tried to fill for a year, then gave up on, covered in three months; an architect searched for more than 18 months, closed in four. The difference is method: mapping the whole market for a profile, including the people who aren't looking, instead of re-advertising the same job.

Search per role is priced as a percentage of the first-year gross salary, with a guarantee of three to six months depending on the level. Recruitment as a Service is a fixed monthly fee per embedded consultant, with unlimited hires, which is far more efficient above roughly 30 hires a year. Contracting and Employer of Record are monthly fees per person. Companies with 50 or more employees in Romania can direct part of their disability-employment contribution to our Advanced and Executive engagements, because Brainspotting is an Authorized Protected Unit (UPA).

It depends on stack, seniority and city, and it moves every year. Our annual Tech Salary & Employment Behavior Report tracks salaries for 20+ tech roles across Romania from a survey of about 6,000 professionals. We publish headline figures from the latest edition on our tech salaries in Romania page, and the full report is available on request.

It's our name for embedded recruitment: senior Brainspotting recruiters working inside your talent acquisition team, on your tools and employer brand, at a fixed monthly fee per consultant with unlimited hires. The team scales up in weeks and down without severance. RPO is the industry term; the model is the same. One client closes about 150 senior roles a year this way with three consultants.

Yes. As Employer of Record we hire your people on our books, with payroll, contracts and compliance handled by us, and transfer them to your entity when it's ready. We did this for the first six months of a US tech center in Romania and for a banking group's new entity in Spain.

Yes, and it is the norm for leadership work. We rebuilt a bank's entire IT leadership, five parallel searches, without the market noticing. Every approach is personal; we don't advertise executive roles, and we can run searches under code names and NDAs.

Every placement carries a guarantee: three months for Classic, four for Advanced, six for Executive search. For contracting and Employer of Record, replacement is our responsibility. Our real benchmark is longer than the guarantee, which is why we follow up years later and publish what we find.

Our best engagements are exactly that. A global trading platform with 15+ internal recruiters brought us in for a 60-role spike its own team couldn't absorb; one of the world's largest professional services firms, with one of the biggest in-house recruiting functions anywhere, chose us for 50 roles in seven languages. We take those mandates exclusively, and we commit accordingly: one partner, fully accountable for the roles you hand over.

Yes. We are based in Bucharest and deliver across Europe and Africa, with recent work in Germany, Poland, Serbia, Bulgaria and Spain. Our CEE+ Tech Talent Map covers 18 countries and over 3.5 million IT professionals, which is usually where a cross-border conversation starts.

Yes, and it is one of our specialties for GBS and shared services centers: 450 hires over two years for a telecom group's NOC and support center in five languages, 50 roles in seven languages for a professional services firm, and support teams in Dutch, Czech and Slovak, the scarcest languages in the market, delivered in two months.

Against the actual job, not the CV. That means technical depth for engineers, accounting judgement for General Ledger roles, verified language levels for multilingual teams, shift suitability for 24/7 operations, and, for leaders, transformation experience and the ability to work in regulated environments. Every candidate comes with an evaluation form, not just a résumé.

Candidate, employee and salary data is managed under an ISO 27001-certified information security management system. Our data protection officer can be reached at dpo@brainspotting.ro.

Yes. Some of our most rewarding mandates are companies opening their first office in Romania or building a first in-house technology team, where every hire is a large share of total capability. The method scales down as well as up.
