What were Onyx’s challenges?
Onyx CentreSource faced the challenge of building a global workforce to match its international clientele. The payments provider engaged Launch Global to recruit talent globally. However, a hurdle emerged – many top candidates resided in countries where Onyx lacked entities. In the pursuit of compliantly hiring talent irrespective of entity status, Onyx’s Senior Vice President of HR Becky Ospina sought guidance from Launch Global.
Launch Global connected Becky Ospina with one of their trusted Employer of Record partners, Velocity Global, to guide her through the next steps. Engaging with an EOR would facilitate Onyx in legally onboarding, paying, and supporting candidates identified by Launch Global – without the need for entities. Moreover, it would alleviate the burden of international compliance, payroll, benefits, and HR support from Becky’s responsibilities.
Launch Global & Velocity Global Shared Success
Combining Launch Global’s expertise in sourcing the talent on an international basis as the recruiter and Velocity Global’s employer of record service to onboard the talent , Onyx successfully added more than 35 international employees in less than six months. Velocity Global now assists Onyx in providing payroll, benefits, and local HR support in countries such as Mexico, Ireland, Portugal, China, Greece, and Sweden.
Becky Ospina values Velocity Global’s expertise and resources, which simplify the onboarding, management, and support of talent across multiple countries, ensuring full compliance, the flexibility offered by Velocity Global, covering various time zones and geographical markets, along with customizable benefits packages, aligns perfectly with Onyx’s needs.
