How an Asian Co-working Space Expanded Across Asia with Second Talent’s EOR Model

Company Background

A co-working space provider offering workspaces for individuals and businesses. Since its inception, the company has expanded steadily across several key Asia-Pacific markets and continues to strengthen its regional presence.

Hiring Goals

The company wanted to expand into more Southeast Asian markets. To do this, they needed a way to hire and onboard talent quickly while making sure everything followed local laws. 

Challenges Faced

Different Hiring Rules in Each Country
Every market had its own hiring and legal rules, which made the expansion more complicated.

Flexible Hiring Structure Needed

The company needed an adaptable hiring approach that would allow them to engage talent externally during the early stages, with the option to integrate them directly when operationally ready.

Solution

The company worked with Second Talent to make the hiring process smooth and easy:

  • Quick Access to Talent: Second Talent provided a group of pre-screened, qualified candidates ready to start.
  • Fast and Flexible Onboarding: The company was able to hire and onboard people quickly, even before setting up local offices.
  • Smooth Employee Transitions: Second Talent helped move employees into the company’s own teams when ready.
  • Compliance Made Simple: Second Talent handled all the legal and hiring rules for each country, lowering the risk for the company.

Results Achieved

Through this partnership, the company successfully secured and onboarded 27 high-quality talents across the region, significantly reducing hiring lead times and accelerating its regional expansion. Second Talent’s hiring strategy provided the agility and compliance the company needed to scale with confidence while laying a strong foundation for future growth.
