Personal Service PSH GmbH

What Personal Service PSH GmbH does

Personal Service PSH GmbH is a German temporary staffing and recruitment company founded in early 2018 by Siegfried Heyen and Thomas Heyen, headquartered in Ostrhauderfehn and operating through 22+ wholly-owned regional subsidiaries across Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Saxony-Anhalt, Rhineland-Palatinate and Bremen. The group provides Arbeitnehmerüberlassung (temporary staffing), Personalvermittlung (direct placement), On-Site-Management, Try & Hire, Projektarbeit and Beratung/Coaching to both SMEs and large enterprises across industry, logistics, handcraft, administration and IT verticals. Named customers include Meyer, Frisia, Stührenberg Aeropark Logistik and Sket Verseilmaschinenbau.

The underlying technology is a relatively standard staffing technology stack: a custom-branded online job portal at jobs.personal-holding.de with application management, status tracking and a candidate talent network, supported by the Talention recruitment management system for ATS workflows. There is no public API, no mobile app, and no proprietary AI/ML layer disclosed; candidate-to-job matching appears to be recruiter-mediated rather than model-driven. The company is differentiated by IZS Premium certification (daily social security verification plus subsidiary liability insurance) and active membership in the GVP industry association, with workers hired on permanent contracts from day one under the GVP collective bargaining agreement.

PSH's go-to-market is hybrid: a sales-led field motion with dedicated representatives at each of the 22+ branch offices doing direct outreach and on-site consultations, complemented by inside sales (phone/email) and a direct-to-consumer candidate funnel via the job portal, social media (Facebook, Instagram) and Google Business Profiles that have built a 4.9 rating across 617 reviews. Pricing is quote-based and varies by service type, worker qualifications and assignment duration; the company does not publish standard rate cards. Ownership remains with the founding Heyen family via Personal Service PSH Holding AG, with no disclosed external funding.

Revenue model

1. Arbeitnehmerüberlassung (Temporary Staffing): PSH provides temporary workers to client companies on a contractual basis. Workers are employed by PSH and assigned to client companies for specified periods. Revenue is generated through hourly billing rates that include worker wages, social contributions, and PSH's margin.

3. On-Site-Management: PSH provides dedicated personnel coordinators who manage the temporary workforce directly at client premises, ensuring smooth operations and compliance.
4. Try & Hire: Candidates are first placed on a temporary basis, allowing clients to evaluate them before making a permanent hire. If converted to permanent employment, placement fees apply.
5. Projektarbeit (Project-based Staffing): PSH supplies specialized workers for time-bound projects with specific requirements.
