What team KRAFT does

team KRAFT GmbH is a German temporary employment and recruitment firm headquartered in Ingolstadt, operating as part of the quinque Unternehmensgruppe since its formation in 2020. The company offers Zeitarbeit (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung / temporary staffing) and Personalvermittlung (direct placement) as its two core services, augmented by a suite of managed offerings including Master Vendor, On-Site Management, EU Recruiting, Single Point of Contact (SPOC), and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). It also operates a digital job portal and accepts spontaneous applications across Industry & Handwerk, Office, and IT categories. Stefan Bachhuber has served as Managing Director since 2021.

The firm delivers services through a physical network of 10 branch offices spanning Bavaria (Ingolstadt, Landshut, Straubing, Cham, Deggendorf, Passau, Neumarkt), Baden-Württemberg (Biberach), and Saarland (Saarbrücken), supplemented by its website, Indeed job-board integration, and a candidate pool of approximately 50,000.

The business model is fee-based: revenue is generated through bill-rate markups on deployed temporary workers and through placement fees on direct hires, plus managed-service fees for Master Vendor, On-Site Management, and RPO engagements. Compliance credentials include ISO 9001:2015 certification, GVP ordinary membership with binding code-of-conduct adherence, and an unlimited Arbeitnehmerüberlassungserlaubnis from the Bundesagentur für Arbeit.

Revenue model

1. Arbeitnehmerüberlassung (Zeitarbeit/Temporary Employment): Revenue generated from temporary employment placements where team KRAFT employs workers and assigns them to client companies.

2. Personalvermittlung (Direct Placement): Fee-based recruitment service where team KRAFT identifies and places candidates directly into permanent positions at client companies. The candidate receives an employment contract directly from the client company, not from team KRAFT.
3. Master Vendor Services: Complete HR organization management for client companies, including coordination of all sub-suppliers (other staffing firms), invoicing, quality controls, compliance management, and reporting.
4. On-Site Management: On-site coordination of all temporary workers at client company premises, including employee support, shift planning, multi-supplier coordination, department communication, KPI control, recruitment and billing.
5. EU Recruiting: International recruitment services sourcing candidates from outside Germany, with multilingual recruiters serving as liaison between clients and foreign candidates, including housing assistance for assignments in Germany.
6. Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO): Outsourcing of individual or all steps of the recruitment process, including job posting, applicant management, interviews and hiring - often directly in the name of the client company.
