Today, with our 500+ in-country HR experts, cutting-edge technology, and comprehensive solutions, we've helped over 2,000 organisations hire, recruit, pay, and manage employees in 170+ countries. Because we created this category, we've learned that successful global expansion isn't driven by technology alone.

It requires deep global expertise. We call this the marriage of expert and technology, human when it matters. This means we have the people and the technology to ensure 100% compliance with local, regional, national, and international laws.
