What is Employer of Record (EOR)?

A simple answer to a confusing problem, so your hiring decisions are based on talent, never geography

Here's the Situation:

The perfect AI engineer for your team is in Berlin. Your top bioinformatics candidate is in Zurich. Your company is in the UK. Without a legal entity in their country, most companies would have to pass on them. But not yours.

Your Traditional Options (Not Great):

  • Set up a foreign entity (6+ months, €15-50k in costs, plus regulatory compliance complexity for life sciences companies)
  • Hire as a contractor (risky: misclassification can come back to bite you)

The EOR Way (Much Simpler):

Your new hire works for you, on your projects, integrated with your team. All the legal employment, contracts, payroll, taxes, compliance, and benefits across jurisdictions? That happens behind the scenes. Simple as that.

In practice: Direct the work. Lead the team. Make the decisions. The paperwork, compliance, and cross-border complexity are completely invisible to you. Your global team comes together seamlessly.

Everything We Handle So You Don't Have To

While you focus on building product and leading your team, all the complicated employment details are handled end-to-end

Payroll & Payments

Monthly payroll in local currency, all withholdings, proper payslips and tax docs. Your team member gets paid reliably, and you never think about currency conversion or tax codes.

Tax Compliance

Every country has different tax rules, and none of them are your problem. All withholdings, filings, and reporting are handled correctly so compliance worries simply disappear.

Legal Compliance

Local labor laws and regulations are monitored and managed continuously. Your hire is fully protected, and so is your company, without your legal team learning foreign employment law.

Benefits Administration

Your team member gets all the benefits they're entitled to, including social security, health contributions, and everything else, and we manage it all.

Employment Contracts

We create employment agreements that protect both your new hire and your company, fully compliant with local law.

Ongoing Administration

Leave tracking, expense reimbursements, contract changes: all the ongoing admin that nobody wants to deal with. We handle it happily.

How EOR Works in Practice

Day-to-day, it feels like hiring anyone locally. The complexity is completely behind the scenes

1

You Hire the Candidate

The decision is yours. When the right person for your team happens to live in another country, that's no longer a dealbreaker.

2

Employment Set Up in 3-5 Days

Within 3-5 days, contract, payroll, taxes, and benefits are all in place. Fast, painless, and your new hire is ready to start.

3

They Work for You (Day-to-Day)

They're part of your team, just like any colleague. Same meetings, same projects, same collaboration. All the legal employment complexity is invisible.

4

We Process Monthly Payroll

Each month, you give us the thumbs up and we process payroll with all the right withholdings. Your team member gets paid on time, every time.

5

We Handle Everything Administrative

Leave tracking, tax docs, compliance monitoring, contract changes: all the admin you'd rather not think about. We've got it.

What You Control vs What We Handle

Full control over the work and the team. Zero burden from the legal and admin complexity

You Control (The Work):

  • Work assignments: What projects they work on
  • Performance management: Reviews, feedback, goals
  • Team integration: Meetings, collaboration, tools access
  • Compensation decisions: Raises, bonuses, equity

We Handle (The Legal/Admin):

  • Legal employment: Employer of record responsibility
  • Payroll & taxes: Monthly salary, withholdings, filings
  • Compliance & benefits: Labor law, statutory benefits
  • Contract management: Amendments, renewals, terminations

Lead your global team with confidence. Every compliance detail, payroll cycle, and legal requirement is handled without you ever having to think about it.

EOR as Bridge During Relocation Processing

Why wait months for visas when your new hire could be productive from day one? Start them immediately while the paperwork processes in parallel

The Old Way (Frustrating for Everyone):

An amazing AI engineer has said yes to your offer. But visa processing takes 4-8 weeks. Without a bridge solution, your project stalls, budget burns on idle salary, and momentum is lost.

Result: 2 months of lost productivity. €20-40k in salary with zero output. Your project timeline slips.

The Smarter Way (EOR Bridge):

Your new hire starts working remotely on day 1 via EOR in their home country while the visa processes in parallel. Once everything's approved and they've relocated, the transition to local employment happens seamlessly. No gap, no lost momentum.

Timeline with EOR Bridge:

  • Day 1: Offer accepted, EOR employment starts (3-5 days setup)
  • Week 1: Employee working remotely, fully productive
  • Weeks 2-8: Visa processing happens in parallel while they work
  • Week 8: Visa approved, employee relocates
  • Week 9: Transition to local employment, now working from your office

Result: 8 weeks of productivity instead of 8 weeks of waiting. €20-40k in value delivered instead of lost. Your project stays on track and your team keeps building.

How the Transition Works:

Phase 1: Remote via EOR (Weeks 1-8)

  • Employed through our EOR
  • Working remotely full-time
  • Fully productive on your projects
  • Integrated with your team
  • Visa processing in parallel

Phase 2: Local Employment (Week 9+)

  • Visa approved and relocated
  • Transitioned to local payroll
  • Working from your office
  • Seamless handoff (we coordinate)
  • Zero disruption to their work

No gap, no disruption. We handle all the transition paperwork. For them, it feels like one seamless experience, just with a change of scenery.

When to Use EOR Bridge:

  • Critical hire needed urgently: Can't afford 2-month delay for project
  • Test before relocation: See how they perform remotely before relocating them
  • Candidate preference: They want to start earning immediately, not wait for visa
  • Maximize ROI: Get value from day 1 instead of paying for idle time
  • Reduce candidate drop-off: Candidates are less likely to accept other offers if they're already working

We recommend this for most relocations. Unless there's a specific reason to wait, starting via EOR is almost always better for everyone involved.

Why You're Protected End-to-End

Beyond compliance, every remote hire is set up for long-term success on your team

Ongoing support and check-ins ensuring placements thrive after hiring

Already Culture-Matched

Every person we place goes through our three-layer validation, because we care about getting the fit right, not just filling a seat.

Ongoing Support

We check in with both you and your new team member at 30, 60, and 90 days, because we genuinely want this to work out.

Covered for 90–120 Days

90–120 day coverage because if a placement doesn't work out, that's a let-down for everyone, and we take that personally.

Every remote hire on your team has been culture-matched, technically verified, and thoughtfully assessed before they ever join. The EOR is just how the employment works legally. The careful matching is why your global team actually feels like one team.

Common Questions About EOR

How much does EOR cost?

EOR is included when you hire remote AI talent through us. You pay the employee's salary plus our service fee. That's it, no hidden costs or surprises.

Are they really employees or contractors?

They're full legal employees under their country's labor law, not contractors. So you don't have to worry about misclassification risk at all.

Can we transition them to direct employment later?

Absolutely. If you set up a local entity down the road, we'll smoothly transition them to your direct payroll. No penalties, no headaches.

What happens if we need to terminate employment?

You notify us. We handle termination according to local labor law: notice periods, severance, and final payments all managed compliantly.

Can we offer equity or stock options?

Yes. You grant equity/options directly from your company. We help structure it correctly from a legal/tax perspective.

What if the employee has performance issues?

You manage performance as you would with any employee. If it leads to termination, we execute it following local labor law.

How is IP (intellectual property) protected?

Employment contracts include IP assignment clauses. Everything they create for you belongs to you. EOR status doesn't affect IP ownership.
