AGENCY TO AGENCY
One agency owns the client relationship and role. A candidate partner helps source and screen people. Agree the fee split and responsibilities first; then introduce candidates only with current permission for that specific role.

ExplorePublish a clear role brief without confidential client details. Set the fee basis, proposed partner share, responsibilities and payment conditions. Keep using your existing ATS; TAP gives both agencies a shared place to follow the collaboration.
Agencies request to work on the role and may propose a different split. The role owner chooses a partner. After agency review, both agency owners accept the same agreement version.
Both agencies need current, role-specific candidate permission before an introduction. TAP records the submission, available TAP IDs, attribution and later progress. My shared jobs shows candidate-stage counts, who acts next and filters for action, waiting and blocked work. Employer access requires separate candidate permission.

A SPLIT, EXPLAINED

Two agencies work together on one role. The role-owning agency manages the client and brief; the candidate partner sources and screens candidates. They agree the fee split, responsibilities and payment conditions before introductions. The candidate partner earns the agreed share of the client fee, not of the candidate’s salary.
Only after both agency owners accept the same agreement version and the candidate has current, job-specific permission for both agencies. The role owner needs the candidate’s separate permission before sharing their profile with the employer. Matching or ambiguous duplicate records are paused for review.
TAP records the agreement version and owner acceptances, who submitted a candidate and when, the agency credited with attribution, the agency holding the profile record when available, and later progress such as interviews, offers and placements. A candidate TAP number appears only when one registered candidate profile verifies against the submitted email and the match is unique; TAP does not invent numbers for recruiter-created records. Attribution is for the role and agreed time window, not ownership of the person.
TAP creates an agreement draft from the agreed terms and records both agency owners’ acceptance of the same version, including the representative, timestamp and agreement hash. It does not provide a qualified e-signature or independently verify who clicked, and it cannot guarantee legal enforceability. Have an Australian solicitor review the wording before relying on it.
No. TAP takes no commission or per-role collaboration fee. Agencies retain their agreed shares of the client placement fee. Subscription charges are separate. Payments & terms records transactions made outside TAP; it does not collect or transfer money.
An agency can manage and introduce a candidate who has not joined TAP, provided it has current permission for the specific role and participating agencies. Creating a record does not create a candidate account or grant consent.
