International Hiring, Done Properly
Grow an international workforce without the legal complexity, payroll burden, or operational drag that slows growth.
We Are Hanover Global Services
Making international employment simpler, safer, and more successful
For over 20 years, we’ve been enabling organisations to employ, manage, and pay talent across borders without the operational and legal friction. Our global workforce solutions combine local expertise with central oversight, giving you the structure to scale internationally with confidence.
Each solution is designed around your workforce, your locations, and your operating model. With a single point of accountability and deep experience across industries, we support everything from corporate teams to field-based operations.
What we do
Structured Global Hiring, Without the Usual Complexity
International hiring often slows under the weight of local regulations. We bring these elements together into a single, coherent model that gives you clarity, consistency, and control across every market.
Employer of Record (EOR)
Hire internationally without setting up local entities. We act as the legal employer, managing contracts, payroll and compliance while you retain day-to-day oversight.
Professional Employer Organisation (PEO)
Strengthen your overseas HR capability through a co-employment model that supports local employment practices and keeps your internal structure intact.
Global Contractor & Payroll Solutions
Engage and pay international talent through a structured, compliant framework. Our Agent of Record (AOR) service enables you to work with contractors globally, with us handling payments and regulatory obligations in each location. Meanwhile, our International Payroll service supports accurate, compliant payments across multiple countries, ensuring you stay aligned to local tax and reporting requirements.
Operating across complex employment landscapes
Remove Global Hiring Risk
International workforce expansion introduces legal, financial, and operational intricacies that limit speed and expose your business to risk. That’s what we’re here to prevent.
Hidden tax risks in new markets
Operating in new markets without the right structure can create unintended tax liabilities, known as permanent establishment risk. We provide compliant employment frameworks that eliminate exposure and support international expansion with clarity.
Contractor misclassification
Incorrect classification of contractors can lead to penalties and legal disputes. Our AOR solutions apply local rules accurately, protecting your organisation and your workforce.
Cross-border payroll errors
Managing payroll across multiple jurisdictions increases the risk of inaccuracies. We deliver consistent processes that align with local tax and reporting requirements.
Multi-country tax complexity
Each jurisdiction carries its own tax obligations and reporting standards. Our expertise simplifies this complexity, giving you a clear and compliant approach across markets.
Local employment law compliance
Employment regulations vary widely by country. We apply local legal frameworks to contracts, benefits, and processes so your workforce is managed correctly from day one.
HR infrastructure abroad
Building HR capability in new markets takes time and investment. Our solutions provide immediate infrastructure, allowing you to operate effectively without delay.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers on how our global workforce solutions support international hiring, compliance, and payroll.
What is the difference between EOR, PEO and AOR?
EOR allows you to hire employees in another country without setting up an entity. PEO supports existing entities with HR and payroll. AOR manages contractor engagements and compliance in each jurisdiction.

Timelines vary by location and role type. Our structured approach enables international hires to be onboarded far more efficiently than establishing a local entity, with processes streamlined once requirements are confirmed.

Yes. You manage day-to-day responsibilities, performance and direction. We manage the legal employment structure, payroll and compliance.

How do you manage compliance across different regions?
We apply local legal, tax and employment frameworks in each country, supported by in-market expertise and central oversight.
