About Wanted
Does Wanted supply specialised trades?
+Yes. Need coded welders, scaffolders, electricians or CNC machinists? We provide skilled trades staffing across Europe, all skills-tested and reference-checked. Each candidate arrives with the right tools, PPE and certificates.
Access to these niche skill sets keeps mission-critical tasks on schedule. One phone call to Wanted replaces weeks of hunting through multiple subcontractors for specialised labour hire.
Where are Wanted’s offices located?
+Our head office is in Spijkenisse, in the Netherlands and we have a few more across the EU, including Belgium and Portugal. Having a central hub plus regional support means we can react quickly to on-site issues and maintain close contact with both clients and crews. Operating from the heart of Europe also shortens travel times for our staff, giving you an EU recruitment firm that’s truly local, wherever your project is.
Which industries does Wanted serve?
+Wanted specialises in construction staffing, industrial maintenance, manufacturing support, shipyard work and petrochemical projects. Our talent pipeline covers everything from heavy-duty welders on a shipyard to turbine technicians on a wind farm.
By focusing on these core verticals, we understand the compliance, certification and skill sets each sector demands. When you ask for niche roles—say, rope-access painters or E&I-certified electricians—we know exactly where to find them.
Why choose Wanted as your recruitment agency for technical and construction roles?
+We support human resources and procurement teams by delivering pre-screened, reliable electricians, welders, fitters, painters, and other technical tradespeople — ready to start when and where you need them.

Finally, we keep things simple and fun. Clear contracts, quick mobilisation and friendly, multilingual account managers make Wanted the recruitment partner you’ll actually enjoy working with.
Recruitment
Are Wanted workers EU citizens (visa-free)?
+Yes. We supply EU-passport holders exclusively, which means no time-consuming visa or work-permit paperwork. Your HR team skips the red tape, and you get boots on the ground faster—often for the following week.
Because every worker is legally cleared to work anywhere in the European Union, you stay fully compliant with local labour laws. A visa-free EU talent pool equals rapid mobilisation and peace of mind.
Are Wanted workers VCA certified?
+Yes. Every single professional on our roster holds an up-to-date VCA certificate—the gold standard for safety, health and environment on European construction and industrial sites. Because we only place VCA certified workers, you start every shift knowing your crew is trained to prevent accidents and follow strict safety protocols. Beyond ticking a compliance box, VCA training builds a safety-first culture on site. Fewer incidents mean fewer stoppages and lower insurance costs, giving you a measurable return on your staffing investment. That combination of safety compliance staffing and cost control is exactly why clients keep coming back to Wanted.
Can we scale workforce numbers mid-project?
+Of course. Our flexible staffing model lets you add or release workers at short notice. Whether you’re accelerating a schedule or winding down after a milestone, we adapt headcount to your real-time needs.
This elasticity helps control labour costs and keeps productivity high. Instead of over-hiring “just in case,” you tap into our temporary staffing solutions exactly when workload peaks.
Do Wanted workers speak English?
+Absolutely. Clear communication keeps projects moving, and that’s why we recruit an English-speaking workforce only. Whether it’s toolbox talks, daily briefings or written hand-over notes, our people understand and answer in English—so nothing is “lost in translation.” Choosing labour that speaks your language speeds up onboarding, reduces mistakes and raises overall productivity. In short, an English-speaking crew turns complex multinational sites into smooth, collaborative environments.
Does Wanted handle payroll and tax compliance?
+Yes. We offer full payroll outsourcing and HR administration, keeping you 100 % compliant with EU labour regulations. You receive one transparent invoice—no hidden social charges, holiday pay surprises or paperwork headaches.
Handing payroll to a single provider frees your time for high-value tasks like project planning and client management. Plus, using a compliant staffing agency shields you from legal risks tied to misclassification or unpaid taxes.
How fast can Wanted start a project?
+With our pre-screened rapid deployment workforce, mobilisation usually takes around 5 days from contract signature. We keep a large bench of ready-to-go trades, so you’re never waiting weeks for hiring.
That speed protects your critical path. If you suddenly need extra hands after a scope change, our fast staffing solutions plug the gap before delays turn into cost overruns.
What does it cost to hire through Wanted?
+We quote a single, all-inclusive hourly rate—no hidden admin, accommodation or visa fees. Transparent pricing lets you forecast with confidence and compare true like-for-like labour costs.
Better still, our economies of scale and streamlined processes make us a cost-effective staffing partner. Clients often save on indirect expenses such as recruitment advertising, HR admin and overtime premiums.
