The face behind Hirewire
Marlies Vernhout has spent years building, professionalizing and leading recruitment departments at growing organizations. Hirewire was born from that experience.

Our services
-
The best candidate isn't always looking. We make sure you find each other.
The candidate you're looking for is often not actively seeking a new role but is open to the right conversation. Hirewire reaches out to these people proactively and discreetly through a strong network and LinkedIn.
From technical specialists to commercial talent and from management positions to supporting roles. With years of experience and an extensive network, Hirewire knows exactly how to reach the right people and win them over for your organization.
We go for the one person who truly fits. The role and your organization.

A sustainable recruitment strategy. Built by your own team.
Do you have a recruiter in house but is your cost per hire still high? The cause is often that there are too many vacancies for the available FTE recruiters. This puts quality and speed under pressure while external agencies pick up the rest. That is expensive and does not solve the underlying problem. The Recruitment Foundation by Hirewire changes that.
We analyze your current hiring approach, identify bottlenecks and deliver a concrete action plan tailored to your business goals. Your own recruiter executes it. We make sure the plan is solid and works.
The immediate result is a lower cost per hire. The long-term result is a recruitment approach that is not dependent on external agencies but sustainably embedded in your organization.
No recruiter in house yet? Through Interim Recruitment we step in temporarily. Or we find through Headhunting the recruiter who will then execute this plan themselves. Recruitment Coaching supports them from day one.

Invest in your recruiter. Feel the impact across your entire organization.
A recruiter who is well supported performs better, works more independently and delivers more. But an HR manager or director does not always have the specialist recruitment knowledge or time to provide that support. Hirewire fills that gap. As an experienced sparring partner, Hirewire understands what a recruiter runs into and what the organization needs.
Hirewire offers practical coaching that helps your recruiter grow in the things that make the difference. Think strategic thinking, stakeholder management and building real candidate relationships. Exactly the things AI cannot replace.
We also help recruiters use AI smartly as a tool. Not as a threat but as a way to work more efficiently and spend more time on what truly matters.
For the organization this means a more independent recruiter, better results and less dependency on external agencies.
Recruitment Coaching can in many cases be charged to the L&D budget.

Direct recruitment capacity. With the expertise to get it right structurally.
Vacancies that stay open too long cost money. Sometimes you simply need someone who can hit the ground running. Hirewire steps in, takes over the hiring and delivers results from day one.
But Hirewire brings more than capacity. Where needed we simultaneously work on the underlying structure, process and strategy. So that your organization is stronger after the collaboration than before.
Interim Recruitment by Hirewire is particularly interesting when you have multiple vacancies open at the same time and temporarily lack sufficient recruitment capacity. Instead of engaging an agency for every individual vacancy you bring one experienced recruiter in house who handles everything. That is significantly more cost effective and you simultaneously build a recruitment approach that continues to work after the collaboration ends.

What other say
”Marlies has been an invaluable addition to our recruitment efforts. She is highly results-driven and approaches her work with a strong sense of ownership. What sets Marlies apart is her openness and willingness to share her expert insights, even in challenging discussions. She is not afraid to provide honest, well-founded opinions. Beyond her expertise, she is a pleasure to work with—collaborative, engaging, and bringing great energy to the team.‘’‘
“Zelden ben ik zo snel positief verrast, als door Marlies. Marlies vond in no time haar plek binnen Inergy en heeft binnen enkele weken een omslag in onze wervingsresultaten gerealiseerd. Inmiddels werken we enkele maanden samen en heeft ze operationeel en strategisch het recruitment proces heringericht. Ze gaat voor het teamresultaat en neemt haar verantwoordelijkheid als interim leidinggevende van ons recruitmentteam. En als we het even niet weten, komt Marlies wel met een creatieve oplossing! Als collega en opdrachtgever hoop ik nog lang te mogen samenwerken.”
