Can you hire before we have an entity?

Yes — through contract or employer-of-record arrangements, moving to direct employment when the entity exists.

Who carries the compliance risk?

Under EOR, the employing entity does. We make the model and its obligations explicit before you commit.

Business problem

What this solves.

The talent is available; the paperwork is the constraint. Entity setup, employment law, payroll and mobilisation differ in every market, and a wrong assumption costs weeks.

No entity required

Contract and EOR models to start hiring now.

Compliance handled

Contracts, payroll and statutory obligations per market.

Mobilisation planned

Visas, onboarding and equipment sequenced to a start date.

Current challenges

What leaders tell us is not working.

Entity setup blocks hiring

A market opportunity exists but legal presence is months away.

Cross-border compliance risk

Misclassification, payroll and statutory obligations differ and are easy to get wrong.

Mobilisation slips

Visas, documentation and onboarding are handled sequentially instead of in parallel.
