What Openjobmetis does

Openjobmetis S.p.A. is an Italian employment agency (Agenzia per il Lavoro) headquartered in Gallarate (Varese), operating since 2001 and now subject to direction and coordination by Groupe Crit S.A. of Paris. The company provides staffing, recruitment, and workforce solutions through a nationwide network of more than 100 physical branch offices (filiali) and a corporate web portal that supports job search, geolocation, and CV submission. Its core product set covers temporary staffing (somministrazione, both determinato and indeterminato), permanent placement (ricerca e selezione), internships (tirocinio), apprenticeships (apprendistato), active labor market policies (politiche attive), and vocational training via the Academy dei Mestieri and JOB Industrial Academy. The offering is organized through specialized divisions targeting sectors such as metalworking, food and beverage, construction, logistics, healthcare, retail, ICT, agribusiness, aerospace, energy, rail/retail, and large enterprise accounts (Divisione Grandi Clienti), plus a dedicated sales-force unit (UNA Forza Vendite).

Revenue is generated primarily on a transaction-fee basis from staffing markups on temporary worker billings and from placement fees on permanent hires, with secondary fee-for-service revenue from training programs and government-funded active labor policies. Customers are both B2B (Italian companies across 25+ industries) and B2C (job seekers and candidates). The group also operates four wholly-owned subsidiaries — Openjob Consulting (advisory), Seltis Hub (HR services hub), Family Care (caregiver/elderly care placement at familycarebadanti.it), and Lyve (workforce management) — which extend the core staffing franchise into adjacent verticals such as home care and consulting. Distribution is direct and domestically focused: no proprietary technology platform is described in available sources, and the digital self-service layer is limited to a job-listing portal with filters by function, contract type, division, branch, industry, and remote-working mode.
