    Global & Remote Staffing

    Global and remote staffing is the practice of recruiting, hiring and managing qualified professionals who work for your company full-time from another country. Unlike a traditional recruitment agency that stops at the introduction, a global staffing partner also handles payroll, HR and day-to-day performance management of the remote employee. For Canadian companies, it is a way to add senior-level talent to the team at a fraction of the local cost, without opening a foreign entity.

    What is global & remote staffing?

    Global staffing lets you build a permanent team abroad while keeping full control over the work. The people you hire are dedicated to your company only — they use your tools, join your meetings and follow your priorities. Conexo takes care of everything around them.

    • Dedicated full-time professionals, not freelancers shared across clients
    • Recruiting, testing and reference checks handled end-to-end
    • Employment, payroll and HR administration carried by Conexo
    • Ongoing performance management by a dedicated manager

    How is it different from a traditional recruitment agency?

    A recruitment agency sells you a candidate. A global staffing partner sells you a working team member and stays accountable for the outcome.

    • Agency: one-time placement fee, no follow-up after hiring
    • Conexo: recruitment, onboarding, HR, payroll and performance tracking included
    • Agency: you carry the risk of a bad hire
    • Conexo: free replacement for 12 months, as many times as needed
    • Agency: local salary grid; Conexo: international cost structure from $11 CAD/h
