about renforza
One recruiter. Two markets. No noise.
Renforza isn't an agency with dozens of recruiters and a database of cold CVs. It's a deliberate bet on less, but better.
the name
Renforza comes from rinforzare: to reinforce.
Renforza comes from rinforzare, Italian for to reinforce. It's why Roman figures wander around this site, and why our logo is a plate of spaghetti made of IT cables.
The Romans turned reinforcement into an art form. Roads, aqueducts, walls: infrastructure that lasted centuries because the people who built it knew their craft. In tech, reinforcement looks a little less heroic than a legion. It's a tangle of cables somebody had better sort out before the whole team trips over it.
That tension is what Renforza is built on. The craftsmanship of the past, the technology of now. We build the future with the discipline of the past.
the story
Ten years in IT. Then recruiting.
Most recruiters come out of sales or HR. Renforza's founder comes out of sales too, just the technical end of it. Almost ten years in tech sales: business intelligence first, then SaaS, then IaaS and PaaS at a major software company, and SaaS again today. Enterprise deals came with the territory.
You can tell within the first five minutes of an intake call. A CTO with no patience for recruiters who can't tell SSH from SaaS never has to explain their stack to us. We speak the language. Two of them, actually, because the Polish network Renforza draws on isn't a purchased database. It's home turf.
Renforza was founded on a single conviction: recruiting works better when the recruiter understands the technology they're selling and searching for, and knows the markets they're searching in. For us, that's the Netherlands and Poland.
the team
Two co-founders, two anchors.
SasiaCo-founder
Sasia has spent more than twenty years on the Poland-Netherlands corridor and everything that comes with it: consulting, trade promotion, and HR. Wherever the two countries do business, she's the one standing in the middle. Renforza's human and cultural anchor.
how we work
Less, but better.
We don't take every search. We don't put forward candidates we wouldn't hire ourselves. And we're upfront when a role isn't fillable, even when that costs us the deal.
That sounds strict, but it's the only way less actually becomes better. An agency with thirty recruiters can live off volume. We live off the match that holds. It forces us to stay critical on both sides of the table, and it's exactly why a CTO who's been burned by three agencies sticks with us.
