An inspiring mission: work your dream

Mr James said he had lived as if in a dream and that his work was his passion and his life. He emphasized that the founders could only use his name under the condition that they would take good care of their people, help them in their career development and make sure they have fun. "We want to help our people by making their dream a reality," Korsten says passionately. "Our company slogan, 'work your dream' is based on this inspirational mission."

What Mr. JAMES creates: perfect matches
The new specialized offshore staffing agency Mr. JAMES distinguishes itself from other organizations by applying new technologies to the staffing process within organizations and departments. This makes everything run efficiently, effectively and smoothly.

For Mr. JAMES, delivering the right employee is about finding the right, qualified person at the right time, for the right position and under the right conditions. "We will ensure that people who work in organizations develop themselves and perform," says Korsten. "That's why every time, we look for the perfect match between companies and people within the offshore industry, and carefully select the appropriate dream jobs for the right people. We believe in lasting relationships with both our clients and our people. This way of working means that we work on our own dream as well: making people proud and happy!"
