Brainbridge IT Staffing is on the lookout for a passionate Business Development Manager to join our Sales Team.

Who are we not looking for? Someone who:

❌ Prefers waiting for opportunities, rather than actively searching for them
❌ Is passive in offering solutions to clients' recruitment challenges

But if you:
✔ Are relationship-driven
✔ Have at least 2 years of commercial experience in the IT staffing industry
✔ Are a strong communicator with an eye for commercial opportunities

Then you could be our (wo)man! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

That was the headline in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 this July. According to a study by European freelance platform Malt, which surveyed 5,000 freelancers across six countries including Belgium, the UK, and the Netherlands, freelancing is more than just a job—it’s a lifestyle choice that many don’t plan on giving up.

Interestingly, 90% of freelancers had previous experience as employees before making the jump. This shift highlights a growing trend: traditional 9-to-5 jobs are losing ground to the freedom and control freelancing offers.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆?

✔ Two out of three Belgian freelancers feel optimistic about their career prospects, even with today’s economic challenges.

✔ Freelancers, particularly in tech and data roles like AI, machine learning, and web development, are proving to be up to 25 times more innovative than the market average.

✔ Seven out of ten Belgian freelancers say personal factors like flexibility, the ability to choose clients, and overall autonomy drove them to go solo. In fact, 75% would turn down work if a client’s values didn’t align with theirs.

This freelance wave isn’t just a trend on paper—it’s a reality seen at Brainbridge, where more professionals are embracing the autonomy of freelance life. From setting their rates to working on their terms, freelancing is offering a fulfilling alternative to traditional employment.

𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿, Brainbridge can help. Whether you’re a seasoned freelancer or new to the game, we’ll connect you with opportunities that match your skills and values. Explore how we can help you thrive in the freelance world! 💥

Networking as a freelancer can be a daunting task. It involves building relationships, expanding your social circle and creating new job opportunities.

Not as easy as it sounds.

Enter Brainbridge! Your networking partner! Let us focus on the tought part, so you can fully focus on your projects.

A quick Google session tells us that, on average, people spend a whopping third of their lives working. During the week you spend more time with your colleagues than with your loved ones.

That's why it's SO important to be happy at work and why we decided to participate in the 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 last week! ☘

To organise this, we asked our colleagues what they thought would be a fun initiative.

And it led to ...
🥾 A movement challenge where we collectively took 500K steps!
☕ A Breakfast & Learn, with healthy options and two colleagues who inspired us with their work at Brainbridge
🌳 A Take-a-Breath walk, where we went for a lunchtime walk to clear our minds and - again - get some exercise.
📝 A well-being survey to gather feedback and identify some future focus areas;
👍 A compliment week where colleagues could share their appreciation through tear-off compliments
🥗 A delicious pokébowl lunch with all our colleagues
And of course...
🥂 A REALLY fun after-work drink to end the week.

In other words, lots of fun, quality time with our colleagues and, most importantly, lots of valuable insights - so let's get to work and make every day at work worth it!

When you need to start looking for a new project, it is important to update your resume accordingly. But have you ever thought about how to organise your resume? If not, now is the time to do so!

As a freelancer, your resume is the 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 recruiters will see. It is the first impression you make on a potential new employer and your key to landing exciting freelance projects.

So, make sure your resume is complete and up to date. Need some tips on how to stand out? Here are a few pointers. 👇

𝟏. 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭! Don't make your CV too long. As a guideline, keep it under 5 pages.

𝟐. 𝐀𝐝𝐝 𝐚 𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟. Recruiters often have to sift through a lot of CVs. If they don't immediately understand your profile, you are more likely to end up on the 'not selected' pile. With a specific title (e.g. .NET Developer) and a relevant summary, you can make it immediately clear who you are.

𝟑. 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲. Yes, it may seem like a lot of work, but by tailoring each CV to specific vacancies you can stand out a lot. Showcase the skills and experiences that are most relevant to that particular vacancy and make a strong first impression!

𝟒. 𝐀𝐝𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. For each project, you should provide at least the following information:
✔ The start and end dates
✔ Your role
✔ The context of the project
✔ Your responsibilities
✔ The technological environment and the methods used

𝗕𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗽: the outcome of your project

𝟓. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐨𝐧𝐞. If you have some Word or Canva skills, feel free to get creative, but always prioritise getting all the information in before making it aesthetically pleasing.

Still not sure how to organise your CV? No problem! Send us yours via 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵@𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘨𝘦.𝘣𝘦 and we'll gladly help you optimise it!

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 | The candidate experience is often overlooked in organisations' recruitment processes. However, it is a critical aspect of your reputation as an organisation.

So what is the candidate experience and why is it so important?

The 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is the key to shaping your company's reputation, starting from the moment a candidate applies for a role.

How seamless is your application process? How quickly do you respond to applicants? These details have a big impact on how candidates view your organisation.

By providing clear communication and timely responses, you're not just filling a role – you're showcasing your company's values.

At Brainbridge, we value speed and efficiency. That's why we make sure we deliver a top-notch candidate experience every step of the way.

Maybe some of you do not remember life before the internet, but at one point the World Wide Web, or www, did not exist. It was Tim Berners-Lee who invented the application on the internet in 1991 that many of us now use every day.

Before this, the Internet was reserved for academics and researchers. His invention opened the use of the internet and enabled other kinds of technologies to emerge such as PHP, modern JavaScript and Java, technologies such as AJAX, HTML 4 and various software frameworks. In other words, from that moment on, life as we knew changed forever and the need for IT experts grew rapidly.

It was no accident that in 1998, our founder Peter Wens saw what was needed and started Brainbridge as a small independent company, focusing on IT staffing for businesses.

So, thank you Tim Berners-Lee!

Our team is growing!

Are you looking to develop your career? And do you have...
✔ Relevant recruitment experience, preferably in the staffing/contracting industry with a focus on ICT or Engineering?
✔ Excellent customer service, interpersonal, communication and teamwork skills?
✔ Excellent knowledge of Dutch and English?

Then you have come to the right place!
