IT consulting services for companies looking to hire IT-consultants
Do you need to strengthen your team with technical expertise without hiring permanent employees? Qlose helps companies hire IT consultants based on their specific skills requirements, projects, and business needs.
As part of Qgroup, an IT consulting group, we have direct access to nearly 1,000 IT consultants. Through our extensive experience in IT consulting, we have also built a large network of freelance IT consultants.
This allows us to search broadly and match the right expertise with the right assignment.
When is the right time to hire an IT consultant?
Skills requirements change. A new project may require specialist expertise that isn’t available in-house, a team may need additional support during a busy period, or you may need to find the right person quickly without being ready to make a permanent hire.
When is an IT consulting solution the right choice?
Hiring an IT consultant gives you access to the expertise you need, exactly when you need it. This can be particularly useful when you:
Need specialist expertise for a specific project
Want to strengthen an existing IT or development team
Have a temporary need for additional expertise
Need to bring in the right skills at short notice
Want flexibility before committing to a permanent hire
IT consulting services tailored to your skills requirements
Finding the right IT consultant isn’t just about technical skills. The person also needs to fit into the right environment, understand the assignment, and contribute where they’re needed most. That’s why we start by understanding your needs and the expertise required to get the job done.
We look beyond technical requirements
Before matching you with a consultant, we consider several factors, including:
- The skills and experience required for the assignment
- What the consultant will be responsible for
- The structure of your team
- How long the need is expected to last
- The goals and expectations of the assignment

IT consultant placement through an extensive network
As part of Qgroup, Qlose has access to nearly 1,000 highly skilled IT consultants. In addition, we have an established network of freelance IT consultants built through many years of experience in the industry. Our IT consultant placement services go beyond simply posting an assignment and waiting for applications. We can search for expertise within our network and actively work to find a consultant who meets the requirements of your assignment.
A network that opens up more ways to find the right consultant
Different assignments require different profiles. By combining Qgroup’s consultant network, freelance consultants, and our own search experience, we can tailor the search to your specific needs. Our goal is to give you access to relevant expertise without having to spend time finding and evaluating a large number of consultants yourself.
How to hire an IT consultant through Qlose
01. Needs and assignment
We start by understanding your situation. What expertise is missing, what will the consultant be responsible for, and what are the requirements for the assignment?
02. Search and consultant matching
Based on your needs, we search relevant networks and identify consultants whose skills and experience match the assignment.
03. Presentation and discussion
We present relevant consultant profiles for you to review and give you the opportunity to meet the consultants who are being considered for the assignment.
04. Getting started
Once you've found the right consultant, we agree on the terms and conditions and make sure the consultant can get started on the assignment.
Consultant or recruitment?
Sometimes the need is clearly temporary. In other situations, you know from the start that the expertise is needed permanently. And sometimes, it’s simply too early to tell. That’s why Qlose works with both IT consulting services and recruitment within IT and tech. This allows us to focus on your skills requirements rather than trying to fit them into a specific solution.
When hiring a consultant is the best option
An IT consulting solution can be the right choice when your needs are project-based, temporary, or require flexibility. You gain access to relevant expertise for as long as you need it, without having to make a permanent hire.
When recruitment is the right choice
If the role is long-term and intended to become a permanent part of your organisation, recruitment may be a better option.
Frequently asked questions about IT consulting services
What does it mean to hire an IT consultant?
Hiring an IT consultant means bringing in external IT expertise for a specific assignment or period of time instead of hiring someone permanently. It can be a good option when your needs are temporary, project-based, or require specialised expertise.
What types of IT consultants can Qlose help us find?
We help companies find a wide range of IT and tech professionals, including developers, IT specialists, tech leads, and consultants specialising in data, AI, and other technical fields.
How does Qlose's IT consultant placement process work?
We start by understanding your assignment and the expertise you need. We then search our network, match you with relevant consultants, and present profiles that meet your requirements.
When is hiring an IT consultant better than hiring a permanent employee?
Hiring a consultant can be a good option when your needs are temporary, a project requires specialist expertise, or you need to strengthen your team without immediately committing to a permanent hire.
Can Qlose also help us with permanent recruitment?
Yes, Qlose also offers recruitment services within IT and tech. If your needs are long-term, we can help you find a permanent employee instead of, or alongside, an IT consultant.
