Staffing

The right person, at the right time – across Finland and the Nordics

When time, cost, or talent availability become a challenge, staffing offers flexible solutions, quickly.

Flexible resourcing through staffing

Temporary gap in personnel, a longer project, or an ongoing need? Staffing adapts to all of them. It gives you peace of mind when work can’t stop due to a shortage of people – and it’s a practical way to optimise your resources without overstaffing or a drawn-out recruitment process.

Operating across Finland and the Nordic region, we know the local market and bring that knowledge to every placement.

The benefits of staffing

We don’t just supply workers – we offer a partnership that fits the rhythm of your day-to-day, takes responsibility for what matters, and grows alongside your business. That’s what sets us apart.

No more stretched budgets or under-resourced teams. Staffing scales with your needs. You pay only for actual hours worked – not empty hours or the wrong roles.

The right person, in the right role, at the right time. Barona’s extensive candidate pool, thousands of monthly applications, and advanced recruitment system enable an exceptionally fast response. Our specialists make sure the person selected has the right skills and the ability to succeed specifically in your working environment.

Employment contracts, payroll, occupational health, and insurance – we take care of the full employment relationship for temporary workers, so you can focus on where you have the most impact. This isn’t just admin; it’s making your everyday smoother and freeing up your time.

We provide our clients with regular reporting and transparent data on workers’ situations, resourcing performance, and service delivery. This helps you make better decisions based on facts.

We track how placements are going and listen to both workers and employers. We analyse what works and what doesn’t. The model is continuously refined based on real-world observations. We don’t stay in the role of a supplier – we walk alongside you and improve our collaboration together.

Do any of these sound familiar?

Temporary need

A project, extra cover, or a stand-in? You get the right person for exactly as long as you need them. No idle months, no unnecessary costs.

A demand spike or an unexpected absence

When a need arises suddenly, we respond quickly. Barona’s candidate pool, our sector specialisations, and over 25 years of experience enable an exceptionally fast turnaround.

A long-term resourcing partnership

Many of our clients use staffing as part of proactive workforce planning. We scale with you as your situation changes.

A specialist or niche skill

Looking for a technical expert, an administrative reinforcement, or a customer service professional? Staffing works for specialist roles too.

Testing before committing

Staffing is a low-risk way to find out whether someone is the right fit for your team and role. With our Try & Hire model, you can bring someone on as a temporary worker first and hire them directly later.

Reducing administrative load

Employment contracts, payroll, occupational health, insurance – we handle everything. You focus on developing the business.

  • Kotipizza

    Kotipizza Group needed support with the staffing challenges faced by their franchise owners, particularly in finding skilled workers. Together with Barona, they created a new operating model that lets franchisees access Barona’s recruitment and training services directly – without intermediaries.

    Barona handles the whole process professionally – from writing the job ad to shortlisting candidates. They then send the most promising ones here for interview. Barona has saved me an enormous amount of time and effort. Outsourcing recruitment is a small additional cost compared to the hassle I’d have had dealing with recruitment and all the associated paperwork. Barona is a genuinely flexible and agile partner.
