Secondment Services

Want to scale your team on demand? Ever wondered if you could onboard Legal, Finance, Compliance, Policy and Tax professionals on an exclusive but temporary basis?
You’ve come to the right place. As pioneers of the secondment model in India’s governance sector, our affiliate Counselect can help prime your company for the new and flexible future of work.
Secondees for every season and reason
There are many reasons why secondments might be the way to go.
You have a lean team and a dynamic workload requirement. You want to access skills not present in-house. You want to free up resources to focus on priorities. You want to test the waters before sealing a permanent deal. You need someone to fill in for a team member on long leave.
Whatever your reason, the right secondee can add real value to your organisation, without any frills or fuss.
From large funds seeking additional support during a hot deal cycle to smaller companies needing discrete expertise, we’ve connected a range of organisations with high-quality secondees who think strategically and hit the ground running.
We sit with you to understand your specific needs, help you select the right candidate from our curated, pre-assessed panel and orient your chosen one before they start with you.
We take care of compliance, payments and all the other sticky admin bits so that you can focus on making the most of your collaboration.
