Permanent IT recruitment in Antwerp and Flanders.
You are looking for someone who does more than fill a vacancy: someone who strengthens your IT team for the long term. Galactus Talent provides specialised recruitment and selection for permanent IT & Digital roles, from Boom for organisations in Antwerp and across Flanders.
We start with the responsibility, the technical environment and the team. Then we search for and assess the person who fits.
When is a permanent hire the right choice?
When the expertise needs a lasting place in your organisation. Think of a developer who helps build a product, an infrastructure specialist who safeguards continuity or an IT Manager who develops the team and its services. Beyond the first assignment, collaboration and long-term responsibility matter too.
We discuss why you are hiring, what the person should achieve in the first months and where the role can grow afterwards. An attractive job title alone is not a complete briefing.
Recruitment for IT & Digital specialists and leaders
Software, AI & data
Software Engineers, developers, Data Engineers and AI specialists. We look at personal contributions, technical choices and experience with systems that match your environment.
Infrastructure & security
System Engineers, security specialists and Infrastructure & Operations Managers. Operations, reliability and incident handling weigh in alongside technical knowledge.
Projects & digital transformation
IT Project Managers, Business Analysts and architects. We discuss how someone clarifies needs, justifies choices and gets to delivery with different stakeholders.
IT leadership
IT Managers, IT Directors, CIOs and CTOs. Mandate, decision-making authority, team size and the board's expectations shape the search.
A recruitment partner who understands the work
Sven Van Roosenbroek takes on mandates himself as Interim CIO and IT Director. That experience underpins our selection: what has someone done personally, which trade-offs did they make, and under what circumstances?
We look at expertise, motivation for a permanent role and fit with the team. Education and equivalent experience call for a considered judgement. A missing CV keyword is not, on its own, a reason to rule someone out. What has not yet been confirmed, we name as an open question.
From hiring need to a well-founded choice
Briefing and feasibility
We clarify tasks, must-haves, nice-to-haves, salary range, languages, work location and the selection process. Why someone would want to join your organisation gets attention too.
Targeted search and assessment
We search for suitable profiles and discuss relevant experience, motivation and expectations. When we present someone, we explain both the fit and the points still to be confirmed.
Interviews and hiring
We coordinate interviews and feedback. Before a decision we clarify the offer, the possible start date and practical arrangements. You decide on the hire; the candidate decides on the offer.
The same job title. A different responsibility.
An IT Manager who professionalises an internal IT department has a different assignment from an IT Manager who leads an international team through an integration. For developers, too, it matters whether someone builds new products, modernises existing systems or has to raise the technical bar for a team.
That is why we test experience against the responsibility in your organisation. Which decisions did the candidate make personally? How did they deal with technical debt, limited resources or conflicting interests? What was actually delivered? The result is a well-founded conversation about what someone can contribute, where development is needed and what support the role requires.
From Boom, we support permanent IT recruitment for organisations in Antwerp and across Flanders: with the business context as the starting point and proven experience as the basis for selection.
Practical questions about permanent IT recruitment
What does recruitment and selection cost?
The fee and terms depend on the assignment and the chosen way of working together. We agree them before the search starts. The scope of the assignment and any exclusivity are also discussed explicitly up front.
How quickly can we hire someone?
That depends on the profile, the offer, the available candidates and your selection process. We discuss a realistic timeline during the intake. Availability and a start date are confirmed with the candidate; we do not promise a fixed time to fill.
Do we need a complete job description already?
No. A concrete need is enough to start the conversation. Together we clarify the role, the technical context, the budget and the expectations before we approach candidates.
Can we also look for an IT Manager or IT Director?
Yes. Permanent recruitment covers both specialists and leaders. For a leadership role we also discuss the mandate, the reporting line and the decision-making authority. This is a search through Galactus Talent, not a personal interim mandate for Sven through Galactus Lead.
