At SoftwareSearch, we help fast-growing tech companies in the Netherlands secure high-performing Software Engineering and Software Sales talent, with efficiency.
With over 200 successful placements, we've helped organisations cut time-to-hire, fix broken recruitment pipelines, and finally land those critical, niche hires.
Hiring top Software Engineers & Software Sales staff is hard - especially when you're scaling fast and looking for Dutch speakers. The best candidates aren’t applying to job ads. They’re already working, and not actively looking. That’s where we come in. We take a solution-focused approach to improve every stage of your hiring journey - offering competitor insights, salary benchmarks, and candidate feedback to strengthen your recruitment strategy.
Our partnership doesn’t stop at the offer stage. With onboarding consulting and ongoing support, we ensure that both clients and candidates experience a seamless transition, laying the foundation for long-term success.
At SoftwareSearch, we believe the right talent doesn’t just fill a role - it transforms organisations, and we are here to make that happen.

'If you are an organisation looking for top tier talent or indeed looking for a new opportunity yourself, I highly recommend James, having over 20 years experience in Contract / Perm & RTD recruitment myself I can honestly say James is one of the most diligent, dedicated Head-hunters I have worked with, impressive on both client and candidate front, an outsource asset to an organisation looking to hire specialist talent.'
'I have spoken to many Tech recruiters over the past few years but James is by far the best. Very professional and excellent communication, where he understands both perspectives; employer and employee. He tried to help me as much as he could during a long recruitment process, resulting in a positive outcome. I'd definitely recommend James to anyone looking for a new opportunity.'
'Normally, I would not consider job offers via Linkedin, but James' professional and helpful persona quickly built a genuine sense of trust which led to a successful post. James' ability to understand my own requirements and the hiring companies' needs, made the recruitment process extremely smooth and efficient. I would highly recommend James' services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable Talent Consultant.'
