Our story · Since 1994
Our journey.
TEAM was formed in 1994, when recruitment agencies experienced a guarded culture and a protective approach with each other.
Luckily, the TEAM founders saw this as a limitation and built the TEAM network to enable recruiters to do the opposite — share business through a collaborative network.
Decades on, TEAM membership has proved to be an asset that should not be ignored — one of the most profitable best-kept secrets in UK recruitment.
From its origins based on sharing jobs and candidates for split fees via TEAM Xchange, TEAM has added a plethora of benefits — our job boards savings alone achieve hundreds of thousands of pounds of savings for many of our agencies.

Since 1994
30+ years of collaboration.
