#TalentFromAnywhere + #HireFromEverywhere =
#WorkFromAnywhere

There is a global talent crunch, acute in developed countries. By 2030, demand for skilled workers will outstrip supply resulting in a global shortage of more than 80 million people.

For Australia, it’s a challenge of epic proportions that has resulted in a talent deficit of more than 450,000 skilled workers. By 2030 this deficit will rise to over 2 million.

The United States faces one of the most alarming talent crunches of any country. US job vacancies hit a record high of 11.5 million in 2022. With the majority of Baby Boomers moving out of the US workforce by 2030, labour force participation is forecasted to fall to 60%, the lowest in history.  

Yet, there are talented people everywhere, particularly across the APAC region, but companies are restricted on who they can hire by borders or middlemen (outsourcers). However, what if:

Year 2020

The year it all clicked

100% bootstrapped, with no sales teams and no marketing. How does a fledgling company from the Yarra Valley region in Australia (one of the world's best wine-growing regions and where our founder lives and works from home) best compete with global enterprise SaaS giants?

First, we decided not to follow Ray Kinsella’s advice “If you build it, they will come” (from Field of Dreams). Instead, we stopped looking at what everyone else was doing and focused on our vision for the future of work.

Year 2021

The year of lockdowns

We learned from the pandemic and the world’s longest COVID-19 lockdown (yes - we were locked down for 262 days!) We learnt that some things change forever… But some stay the same. As businesses raced to remote and hybrid work and faced ever-increasing talent shortages, Outstaffer became more and more a no-brainer.

Expanding to the Philippines and the USA, we focused on how we could make it easier for companies to find, hire, equip and pay talented workers from around the world. After landing some big enterprise customers in the USA that shared our vision, we knew our strategy and business model were sound.

Year 2022

Making a global impact

By solving these issues, we quickly realized we could not only help thousands of businesses around the world, but we could open the best jobs to everyone, no matter where they lived. Meaning more companies could find, hire and equip top talent, and more people could get career opportunities to work with top companies. 

After helping 58 companies find, hire and equip over 250 people across 6 countries, it was time to use what we learnt to build a single global employment platform to scale and eliminate hiring borders and middlemen once and for all!

Year 2023

We’re officially shooting stars

Yes, we love the song Shooting Stars by Bag Raiders.

More importantly, we’re attacking on of the biggest problems in the world - automated borderless hiring, equipping and paying global talent at scale with technology. Our oversubscribed Seed round (featuring leading VCs and investors in Australia) proved that we’re onto something huge.
