A tech and human approach

Our story

JMG was launched in 2007, when the recruitment industry was flush with exciting career opportunities.

For experienced recruiters Jos Schrage, Erik Bell and Tjibbe Galama, starting their own niche recruitment company was a no-brainer. Together, they could bring something to the market no one else had – a commitment to build stronger, lasting relationships with their clients.

Then the financial crisis hit in 2008. Freshly-launched JMG decided to reinvent itself. An idea sparked and a new hybrid model of recruitment was born: an online job board where companies posted vacancies and JMG worked actively to drive the right traffic to the listing using innovative tech tools and digital marketing strategies.

A mutually supportive relationship between recruiter and client became our key to success.

Today there are 250 people who work for JMG – recruitment, digital marketing, talent sourcing, data, tech and development professionals. In all roles, the goal remains the same: to build sustainable long term partnerships with talent and companies and to consistently explore new ways to find matches that stick.

We love our data analysis, but there is always a human, personal touch to everything we do. People are more than the value of their CVs and skill sets – they also have emotional needs. That’s why we take the time to get to know our clients and design a growth path together.
We work tirelessly to make sure we place the right talent in the right environment. Close enough isn't an option for us. We strive to fully understand the motivations of our clients, so that our placements lead to long-term satisfaction and growth.
