Employer of Record · Global Staff Augmentation
We become the legal employer abroad — handling payroll, local taxes, and labour law — while your new full-time hire works from our managed office and reports directly to you. No entity to open. No contractor risk.
The problem
The right person is in another country. Without a legal entity there, you have no compliant way to put them on payroll.
Misclassification can trigger penalties of tens of thousands per worker — and a contractor can walk mid-project with no notice.
Standing up a legal entity, local payroll, and HR in another country is months of work and ongoing overhead — for just one or two hires.
If your current arrangement was reviewed tomorrow, would it hold up? Most informal contractor setups quietly wouldn't.
How it works
We take on the legal employer, the workspace, and the operations — so you can simply manage the work.
We become the legal employer in the talent's country and handle payroll, local taxes, labour law, contracts, and full compliance.
You manage the day-to-day. Your hire is a dedicated, full-time extension of your own team — not an agency, not a freelancer.
Your employee works from our managed office — reliable internet, power backup, and equipment, all set up and looked after.

FAQ
An EOR is a company that legally employs someone on your behalf in their country. We hold the local employment contract and handle payroll, tax, and labour-law compliance — while the person works for you day to day.
No. That's the whole point. You get a compliant, full-time hire without registering a foreign company, setting up local payroll, or building a local HR function.
You do. The hire is a dedicated, full-time extension of your team — you set priorities, tools, and hours. We handle the employment and the workspace behind the scenes.
It sits with us. Local contracts, payroll, tax filings, and statutory requirements are our responsibility — so your setup is built to hold up under scrutiny, not just to look fine until it's audited.
No. A contractor is self-employed and can be re-classified as an employee — which is where the penalties come from. With us, the person is a properly employed, full-time team member from day one.
Typically weeks, not months — far faster than standing up your own entity. The exact timeline depends on the role and country. Talk to us and we'll map it out.
