Dillistone Group (DSG: LSE), the UK-based supplier of recruitment software to the international recruitment industry announced that its GatedTalent platform has reached an agreement with UK-based Friisberg & Partners International, a partner-owned management consulting group specialising in retained executive search.

Under the terms of the agreement, each Friisberg recruiter will have the ability to search the GatedTalent platform and contact individual executives on specific mandates. The firm also has access to GatedTalent’s mail service.

in the first month of usage, more than 10,000 senior-level executives had accepted connection requests from Friisberg & Partners International.

Jason Starr, CEO of GatedTalent, commented, “We are delighted to add Friisberg & Partners International to the growing list of executive recruiters benefitting from the platform. The more recruiters that join the service, the more executives that join. The more executives that join, the more recruiters they attract. The result is a rapid growth in member engagement – which is the key aim of a platform of this type. All this is reflected in our consistently excellent Trustpilot scores.”
