Maedium is an independent IT brokerage from Alkmaar. We connect clients in the Randstad with experienced freelance IT specialists — personal, transparent and DBA-compliant. Not a broad recruitment mill, but one fixed point of contact who knows every engineer.
Request a no-obligation intake callWhat is IT freelance brokerage?
IT freelance brokerage means we put you in contact with independent IT professionals who fit your assignment. Unlike a staffing or secondment agency, Maedium never becomes the engineer's employer: we broker, and the specialist remains self-employed. You get the flexibility of external hiring, without the burdens of employment.
Our focus is on cloud, network and security — the specialisms where scarcity is greatest and a good match delivers the most. Because we are small and specialised, we know the engineers in our network personally. We know who is technically strong, who thrives in which environment and who fits your organisation. That makes our matches sharper than an algorithm or a broad shortlist.
How does it work?
- 1. Intake. In a no-obligation conversation we map out your need, your environment and your wishes.
- 2. Match. We propose one or two specialists from our network specifically — not a pile of CVs, but a considered selection.
- 3. Introduction. You meet the engineer and decide whether there's a click.
- 4. Compliant start. We arrange the collaboration through brokerage or intermediation, always DBA-proof.
What can you engage us for?
For temporary capacity, scarce specialisms or absorbing peak and project work. Think of cloud engineers, network engineers, security engineers, DevOps engineers and related IT roles in the Randstad.
Why Maedium?
Personal, transparent and specialised. One fixed point of contact, a fair hourly rate without hidden fees, and certainty around the Dutch DBA Act. We tell you honestly if we don't have a match.
