Common questions

Permanent staffing FAQs.

What types of permanent roles does Foss Services recruit for?

We fill permanent roles across all sectors: maritime (shore-based superintendents, port operations), oil & gas (technical and HSE), hospitality (hotel and catering management), facility services (supervisors and technicians) and corporate functions (HR, finance, administration) for Ghanaian and multinational employers.

Does Foss Services handle payroll for placed candidates?

Yes. Our fully managed payroll service covers permanent, contract and casual staff — including PAYE computation, SSNIT contributions, Tier 2 pension deductions and timely filing with the Ghana Revenue Authority. It can be engaged as a standalone service or as part of a recruitment package.

How long does permanent staff recruitment take?

For most roles, we present a qualified shortlist within 5–10 business days of receiving a confirmed brief. Senior or specialist roles may take 10–15 business days. Our pre-screened candidate pool for common maritime and hospitality positions can significantly reduce this timeline.
