What Morgan Green does

Morgan Green is a privately held Dutch recruitment and staffing firm headquartered in Amsterdam (Koningin Wilhelminaplein 30, Prinsenhof Gebouw). The company specializes in matching professionals to organizations across four industry verticals — Food & Beverage, Pharma/Biotech/Medtech, Energy & Sustainability, and Engineering & Operations — and five functional disciplines, including Quality & Regulatory, Engineering & Maintenance, Operations & Supply Chain, Project/Validation/Change, and Commercial. Its named enterprise customer base includes Heineken, FrieslandCampina, Danone, and McCain, all multinational FMCG operators.

The firm operates three service lines: Werving & Selectie (retained permanent search), Interim/Freelance (ZZP contractor placement), and Detachering/Uitzenden/Flex (secondment and flexible staffing). Its core technology is a recruitment and staffing platform built around sector-specialized consultant teams rather than generalist recruiters, with screening processes that explicitly test for context (GMP, audits, shifts, stakeholders) in addition to experience. The company is NBBU-affiliated, NEN-certified, and compliant with Dutch legislation covering posted workers and freelance engagements (WAADI, DBA, WAP).

Morgan Green generates revenue through quote-based fees across its three service lines, primarily targeting enterprise clients in the Netherlands (its sole disclosed operating geography). Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise engagement for permanent and interim mandates with a self-serve website jobs portal, a LinkedIn company page, and an X account (@WorkAtMorgan) for candidate-side inbound. Headcount is reported at 11–50 employees, and no funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership changes are disclosed in the available data.
