EMPLOYER OF RECORD
Hire Globally Without Borders
Expanding your team across borders shouldn’t mean opening a new office or navigating unfamiliar labour laws. Access Financial’s Employer of Record (EOR) service gives you the freedom to hire, onboard and pay talent anywhere while we handle the legal employer responsibilities.
FAQ
What is an Employer of Record?
An Employer of Record is a third party organisation that becomes the legal employer of workers on behalf of a client company. An EOR issues local employment contracts, registers employees with the relevant tax and social security authorities and manages payroll and benefits, including probation and termination, in accordance with labour laws. This model lets companies hire abroad without setting up a local entity – the EOR handles visas, onboarding and payroll while the worker performs day to day duties for the client.
Many EOR providers rely on networks of partners, which can create a fragmented employee experience and dilute accountability. Access Financial stands out because we only deliver EOR services in countries where we own the legal entity. This direct model means your workers have a single employer and a dedicated support team, avoiding the inconsistency seen when EOR providers outsource to intermediaries.

Ongoing payroll & support (monthly)
We manage payroll, taxes, benefits, expenses and off boarding while you direct the worker’s day to day duties.
Why Access Financial?

Unlike many providers that rely on partner networks, Access Financial only operates in countries where we own the employing entity. This avoids fragmented service and gives you a single point of accountability.

Director, ARTO Life Sciences
Before partnering with Access Financial, our international expansion was a manual process of “Googling” and high legal fees.
Since day one, the team at Access has provided a ton of advice in areas that were completely new to us. They quickly became our main provider for non-UK placements because they always come out on top. Their response time is record-breaking, often getting us answers within the same day. This speed allows us to get contracts out the door without losing candidates to long wait times.

Having worked in the tech and SAP staffing sector for 25 years, I have relied on Access Financial for almost that entire duration.
Navigating the complex landscape of international compliance and legal requirements is a major challenge, but Access Financial makes it manageable through their global expertise. We count on their extensive breadth of knowledge whenever we are providing services in different jurisdictions.

Partnering with Access Financial provided the necessary reassurance and scope to operate safely across Europe.
One of the most significant benefits was their unwavering commitment to compliance, which offered security to both our clients and our contractors in an environment often filled with misinformation. Unlike some providers who offered questionable incentives, Access Financial prioritized giving the right advice and maintained an “audit mentality” that our own accountants and lawyers truly valued.
