What we do

Opaldale is an independent consulting and facilitation business based in the UK. We help manpower and recruitment agencies abroad find suitable, licensed recruitment partners in other countries, wherever the right talent is.

We act as a bridge between the two sides: understanding what each agency needs, making relevant introductions, and supporting clear, professional communication as they decide whether to work together. The agencies themselves carry out the recruitment, under their own licences and agreements.

Who we work with

We work exclusively with licensed agencies on both sides of the partnership.

01

Hiring agencies

Licensed manpower and recruitment agencies in any country looking for reliable international sourcing partners.

02

Sourcing partners

Government-licensed recruitment agencies that want to build responsible relationships with agencies overseas.

03

Across borders

Partnerships that work across countries and regions, built on compliance with the rules on both sides.

How it works

A simple, transparent process, with the agencies in control at every stage.

Start a conversation

Tell us about your agency, your licence, and the kind of partner you are looking for.

Understand your needs

We learn about your sectors, the countries you work in, and the standards you expect.

Introduce suitable partners

Where there is a good fit, we introduce you to licensed agencies on the other side.

You agree the terms

Partnerships are agreed directly between the agencies, under their own contracts and licensing.

Our approach

Fair, lawful recruitment is the foundation of everything we do.

Ethical recruitment

We follow an employer-pays model. Workers are never charged fees by Opaldale, and we only work with partners who share that commitment. Read our Workers Pay Nothing policy.

Licensed partners only

We work alongside agencies that hold the licences required in their own country. We ask to see them before making any introduction.

Respect for local rules

Every country sets its own rules for recruitment and migration. We expect every partner to comply with the laws of both the sending and the receiving country.

Who do you work with?

Licensed manpower and recruitment agencies, and employers, in Europe, the UK, Australia and New Zealand, along with government-licensed recruitment partners in Nepal, India and the Philippines.

Is Opaldale a recruitment agency?

No. Opaldale is an independent consulting and facilitation business. We introduce agencies to licensed partners. We do not employ, recruit or place workers directly.

Do workers pay any fees?

No. We follow the Employer Pays Principle, and no worker pays a recruitment fee to Opaldale or to any partner we introduce. See our Workers Pay Nothing policy.

How do you check partners?

We see each partner's government licence and check it against the official register in its country, such as Nepal's Department of Foreign Employment, before making any introduction.

Which sectors do your partners cover?

Construction, hospitality, logistics and warehousing, manufacturing, agriculture, care support, drivers and cleaning.

Who agrees the terms of a partnership?

The agencies do. Partnerships are agreed directly between the agencies, under their own contracts and licensing. We support clear communication along the way.

How do we get started?

Send us a message using the contact form below or email info@opaldale.com, telling us about your agency, your licence and the kind of partner you are looking for.

For workers

Opaldale does not recruit workers directly and never takes money from workers. No genuine partner we introduce will ask you to pay a recruitment fee.

Signs of a fake job offer:

  • Someone asks you to pay for a job, a visa or a "processing" fee.
  • The agency cannot show a government licence, or its licence is not on the official register.
  • You are promised a job or visa that sounds too good to be true, or pressed to decide quickly.
  • Contact comes only through personal phone numbers or social media, with no company details.

Where to report: email info@opaldale.com. Workers in Nepal can also report to the Department of Foreign Employment.
