Expanding overseas operations for a German SaaS scale up

A German SaaS scale up needed to grow its engineering team across Europe without opening local entities. The challenge involved hiring skilled engineers in multiple countries under different employment laws, managing complex legal and tax compliance for cross-border employment, dealing with error-prone payroll and benefits across jurisdictions when done in-house, and overcoming expansion speed limitations due to administrative and compliance burden. They needed one partner to handle employment, payroll, and compliance so they could scale without delay.

Jackson & Frank delivered EOR and integrated multi-country payroll tailored to their expansion needs. The solution included: EOR and hiring services acting as legal employer in Germany, Netherlands, and Poland, providing hiring and onboarding support, and localized contracts and benefits. Multi-country payroll with unified payroll across three countries, accurate tax and social security management, and benefits administration and reporting. Compliance services ensuring local labor and tax rules were properly followed with ongoing regulatory monitoring and updates.

Successfully onboarded 12 engineers across 3 countries in 3 months. Achieved zero penalties with legal requirements met in all three countries. Realized a 90% payroll error reduction leading to smoother operations. The scalable setup was delivered within the 3-month timeline, enabling rapid expansion without administrative burden.
