Promedis24

What Promedis24 does

Promedis24 GmbH is a German specialized staffing agency focused exclusively on the healthcare and social services sector, founded in October 2010 in Berlin and headquartered in Bremen under parent holding company Topp Holdings GmbH. The company operates two primary service lines: temporary staffing under the Arbeitnehmerüberlassung framework, where Promedis24 acts as employer of record and bills clients an hourly rate plus surcharges for overtime, night, weekend, and holiday work; and direct placement (Direktvermittlung), charging a recruitment fee scaled to the placed candidate's gross monthly salary and reducible based on prior temporary assignment tenure. Approximately 900 internal and deployed professionals are organized through 15 branch offices across northern, eastern, western, and southern Germany, with an On-Tour program extending assignments nationwide and into Switzerland.

The company's operational technology centers on three components: the Promedis24-Job-Tool (Jobbaukasten), a self-service configurator that captures candidate preferences for hours, location, and training priorities; integration with the Zvoove WorkApp for paperless mobile time tracking with digital approval workflows; and a Kundenportal (customer portal) for facility self-service. The go-to-market model is sales-led via regional branch teams targeting healthcare facilities, KiTas and schools, senior care homes, social welfare organizations, and rehabilitation workshops, supplemented by employer branding across LinkedIn, XING, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, a dedicated podcast ('AUF ZEIT'), and industry events such as Altenpflege Messe. Customer acquisition is diversified across mid-market institutions with no disclosed enterprise anchors.

Revenue is generated through transaction fees on temporary placements and successful permanent hires, with no public pricing or revenue disclosure. The company positions itself as a values-based employer offering permanent contracts, above-tariff pay, training allowances up to €2,500, birthday leave, Urban Sports Club and Corporate Benefits integrations, and a referral program paying €1 per productive hour up to €1,800 annually. No AI/ML capabilities, public APIs, or third-party developer integrations are disclosed in available materials.

Direct peers

• Pluss Personalmanagement: German HR services group with a strong specialization in healthcare, nursing, and social-sector staffing across multiple regions. Closely comparable to Promedis24 in target customer base (Kliniken, Pflegeeinrichtungen, Kitas), service model (Zeitarbeit plus Direktvermittlung), and values-based employer positioning.
• Tempton: Mid-sized German staffing firm with a dedicated healthcare and social-services division and a multi-branch nationwide footprint. Directly comparable to Promedis24 in offering temporary and permanent placement of nurses, caregivers, and educators to German healthcare and social facilities.
• Persona Service: German staffing company operating a large branch network across Germany with dedicated healthcare and social-sector service lines. Comparable to Promedis24 in scale (~900-employee range mid-market specialists), industry vertical focus, and Zeitarbeit-plus-Direktvermittlung service offering.
• Unique Med (Unique Personalservice): German staffing firm with a specific healthcare and medical focus, placing nurses, medical assistants, and care professionals. Comparable to Promedis24 in vertical specialization, target roles, and Zeitarbeit-plus-permanent-placement service model.

Broad incumbents

• DIS AG: One of Germany's largest staffing and recruiting firms with broad sector coverage including healthcare and social services. A larger incumbent with overlapping healthcare staffing capabilities, but operates as a generalist across many verticals rather than a dedicated specialist.
• Randstad Deutschland: German arm of global staffing leader Randstad, operating across healthcare, social services, and many other verticals. Overlaps with Promedis24 in placing healthcare and social-sector workers but as part of a much broader portfolio serving many industries.
• Adecco Germany: German subsidiary of global staffing major Adecco with healthcare and care-sector staffing offerings. Comparable to Promedis24 in service offering but competes from a broader, generalist positioning rather than a dedicated healthcare/social niche.

Emerging players

• Careforce: Smaller, healthcare-focused recruiting and staffing firm serving hospitals, clinics, and care facilities in Germany. Comparable to Promedis24 in vertical specialization but at a smaller scale and with a more limited geographic footprint.

Others

• Zvoove: Technology vendor whose WorkApp is integrated into Promedis24 for digital time tracking and workforce management. Included as an ecosystem/enabling peer because Zvoove's platform is part of Promedis24's operational backbone and represents the broader digital staffing infrastructure layer.
• Topp Holdings: Parent holding company of Promedis24 GmbH, also active in other staffing and personnel-services businesses. Relevant as a closely related strategic/portfolio entity rather than a direct competitor.
