“Recruitment is not fundamentally an agency business. It is a distributed transaction system where value is created by multiple participants.”

Decentralised sourcing. Centralised execution. That's Placera.

How it works

Your desk. Our entity. One network.

From application to first commission in under 48 hours. No company setup, no payroll system, no compliance headaches.

1
Apply & get approved

Submit your recruiter profile. We review your experience and onboard you within 48 hours. No upfront cost, no lock-in.

2
Bring clients & candidates

Add your clients and submit candidates. Placera becomes the legal entity on every contract, your client, your relationship, our paperwork.

3
Collaborate via Deal Feed

Post open roles or available candidates to the Deal Feed. Collaborate with other Placera recruiters and split the margin, no role or candidate goes to waste.

4
Earn & grow

Receive 60–70% of placement margin, paid fortnightly. Every contractor you add, every collaboration you close, compounds your income.

Everything included

Your agency's infrastructure, without the agency

Stop losing 75% of your margin to overhead you never see. Placera gives you everything, and a network no solo operator can match.

Candidate ownership, timestamped & immutable

Every submission is locked with an immutable timestamp. First submission wins. No disputes, no grey areas. Your candidates are yours.

Contract generation

Legally sound service agreements auto-generated on every placement. Sent for e-signature, stored and accessible forever. Placera ABN on every contract.

Payroll, super & invoicing

Weekly timesheets, fortnightly payroll runs, super at 11.5%, GST-compliant invoices auto-raised to clients. All of it, automatic.

Commission rules engine

Start at 60%. Hit 3+ active contractors and your rate lifts to 65%. Long-tenure placements earn 67%. Your commission grows as your desk grows.

Deal Feed, collaborative placements

Post roles or candidates to the network. Split margin transparently with collaborating recruiters. No role goes unfilled for lack of candidates.

Deal Feed

You're not working alone.

Every Placera recruiter operates independently, but on the same platform. A cloud recruiter and a cybersecurity recruiter can split a deal in minutes. No role goes unfilled. No good candidate goes unplaced.

Without Placera

You have a great candidate but no open role. They go to waste. Or you have an open role but can't find the right person in time. The client goes elsewhere.

With Placera Deal Feed

Post the candidate to the Deal Feed. Another Placera recruiter has the right role. You agree a split. Placera handles the contract and pays both of you. Nothing is wasted.
