Is there a huge difference between people working on a temporary or a permanent job basis? There should not be, as they are all working. This basic insight lies at the very basis of Accent. This specialist HR service provider focuses on ‘temp to perm’ staffing. For more than 27 years already, Accent differentiates itself by its professional approach and offering flexible jobs with the opportunity of a permanent contract.

Accent was founded in 1995 by Conny Vandendriessche and Philip Cracco, with a first office in Roeselare, Belgium. Now, 25 years later, Accent has become one of the largest staffing companies in the country, with headquarters in Roeselare. It searches the best fitted candidates for all kinds of clients: from SME to multinationals. It does so both for workers and employees. Always again, the unique feature remains the same: offering temporary jobs with the possibility of turning it into a permanent contract.

Accent is active in many different sectors and industries, from logistics and industry, transport, construction but also retail, office and horeca. It makes them a multi-specialist. Also a large department with focus on foreign recruitment has been established throughout the years.  

So as to be as close to the clients as possible, Accent has a widespread network of offices all over the country. From the 233 offices, more than 1200 internal colleagues do their very best to find the best possible job match for every candidate on a daily basis. They all do this according to specific Accent values and dreams: to embrace every talent and spark joy in their lives. Embracing means every person is much more than just a CV, they are individuals with a story, dreams, … Every single person has talents, and every person deserves pleasure, inclusion, friendship at work and in their lives.

On top, Accent has three internal values it fosters among its team: be a friend, stay gutsy and go pro. In Accent's Talent Lab training and coaching courses are provided for internal staff and people at work.
