About this Solution

Why is Managed Recruitment structured differently at BSG?

We believe there is a better solution for SMEs than the traditional agency approach to recruitment. By recruiting using a time spent approach (instead of a finder’s fee), we are able to save our clients money while delivering better results.

This is why our embedded Managed Recruitment solution is structured differently than our Human Resources and Cloud Accounting solutions. We still work in an embedded way, feeling like part of your business and supporting the complete recruitment process as your hiring needs ebb and flow.

For those more specialized hiring needs, we offer two fixed-fee options, Managed Search and Executive Search.

Upon your request, we can handle any out-of-scope work at an additional hourly rate.
