Brisker Group

What Brisker Group does

Brisker Group is a privately held Dutch HR services holding company established in 2018, operating two wholly-owned sub-brands: Tentoo and Pay for People. Tentoo delivers payroll, flex worker administration, employer-of-record services, HR advisory, and administrative partnership for freelancers, self-employed professionals (zzp'ers), and permanent staff. Pay for People provides end-to-end backoffice outsourcing to staffing agencies, covering contract management, hours registration, salary and personnel administration, and invoicing through proprietary custom-built software.

The company's business model combines subscription-style payroll administration, managed services for backoffice outsourcing, and professional services for HR advisory. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. GTM is sales-led and direct B2B, targeting employers (enterprise and mid-market), freelancers/zzp'ers, flex workers, and staffing companies primarily in the Netherlands with some Belgian customer presence. The company reports over 200 colleagues across multiple locations, self-identifies as the undisputed market leader in Dutch flexible labor, and holds Great Place To Work certification for both brands. Notable customers include Picnic, Too Good To Go, ANP, NOB, PUNT Personeelsdiensten, ICYLPW, DBvideo, Kobus Opleidingen, HR Zeeland, and Jef.

No public revenue figures, funding rounds, or investor disclosures are available. Technology stack centers on a proprietary custom backoffice platform; no AI/ML capabilities, public API, or third-party integrations are disclosed. The company operates in a single-country (Netherlands) core market with emerging Benelux presence.

Broad incumbents

• Visma: Large Nordic/European software and services group providing payroll, HR, and accounting solutions across multiple countries, including the Netherlands — overlapping Brisker's payroll and backoffice capabilities as part of a broader portfolio.
• ADP: Global payroll and HR services giant with multi-country managed payroll offerings and HCM platforms — a broad incumbent whose enterprise payroll and employer-of-record services overlap with Brisker's Tentoo business.

Regional players

• Zenefits: US-based HR, payroll, and benefits platform for SMBs — comparable business model (combined software + managed services) but operating exclusively in the United States rather than the Benelux market.
• Gusto: US payroll, HR, and benefits platform built around employer-of-record and contractor-payment services — a thematically comparable model to Tentoo's freelancer and flex-worker payroll, though focused on the US SMB market.

Direct peers

• SD Worx: Belgium-headquartered HR and payroll services provider operating across the Netherlands, offering managed payroll, HR outsourcing, and workforce administration for employers and flex workers — directly comparable to Brisker's Tentoo and Pay for People offerings.
• Nmbrs: Dutch cloud HR and payroll SaaS platform serving employers and accounting firms with payroll, HR, and employee administration — comparable to Brisker's proprietary payroll and backoffice software stack.
• Loket.nl: Dutch online payroll and HR administration platform serving SMBs and employers with payroll, HR admin, and flex-worker management — closely overlapping Brisker's Tentoo proposition for Dutch employers.
• AFAS Software: Netherlands-based business software vendor with a leading HRM/Payroll suite (AFAS Profit) used by Dutch employers for salary administration and HR — directly comparable to Brisker's enterprise payroll and HR platform layer.
• Exact: Dutch-origin accounting, HR, and payroll software provider serving SMBs and accountants in the Netherlands and Belgium — comparable to Brisker's payroll and backoffice proposition for Dutch employers and staffing firms.

Emerging players

• Personio: European HR and payroll SaaS platform expanding from Germany into the broader DACH/Benelux market, targeting SMBs with integrated HR, payroll, and recruiting — an emerging challenger in the same category as Brisker's platform layer.
