Selected projects showing how we support companies with international specialists. Good recruiting does more than fill roles — it creates competitive advantage and supports long-term success.

Shipbuilding specialists from Eastern Europe for an international cruise ship project

For a demanding project in German shipbuilding, we staffed 15 specialists from Eastern Europe — including shipbuilding engineers, interior designers, and project-related professionals. This allowed a complex cruise ship project in Germany to be supported in a targeted way across technical, design, and coordination roles.

Engineering profiles from Romania in the German temporary staffing model

For a technical project environment in Germany, we engaged engineering profiles from Romania via a German employee leasing model. The assignment included design-related tasks, technical clarification, and project-specific detailed work—within a setup that combines international availability with legally compliant integration in Germany.

Backend and cloud specialists for point-of-sale systems

For a growing technology company, we staffed international developers with a focus on Python, APIs, AWS, and cloud-related migrations. The profiles supported a dynamic product environment in backend development, technical modernization, and the expansion of scalable system landscapes.

Remote developers for digital projects in the tourism sector

For a digital corporate group environment in the tourism sector, we filled 18 international developer roles across different functions, including backend, AWS, DevOps, and full-stack profiles. The engagement was carried out predominantly remotely, supplemented by occasional on-site assignments, and created flexible capacity for ongoing development and infrastructure projects.

FAQs

Answers to frequently asked questions.

How high is the risk of misclassification for remote freelancers?

We cannot provide legal advice. However, if you seek appropriate advice, you may find that many of the relevant criteria for the risk of false self-employment are significantly reduced in remote work from abroad. Among other things, the work takes place in another location, using independent work equipment and with self-directed task allocation.

Our corporate and project language is German. Can we find suitable candidates abroad?

Yes and no. There are German-speaking specialists in many fields, including outside Germany. At the same time, the pool becomes correspondingly smaller. If you want to solve your staffing challenge in the long term and strategically, it can make a lot of sense to open up to English as the project language or to create transitional models in which candidates start in English and learn German on site. We would be happy to advise and support you with this.

German employee leasing in another country. Is that possible?

Yes, there are models in the EU that address this

Candidates moving to Germany: Isn’t that complicated?

Candidates from the EU can freely choose where they live and work. In practical terms, this is simply a relocation—similar to a candidate moving within Germany. For professionals from non-EU countries, there are well-regulated Blue Card procedures whose criteria candidates from the IT and engineering sectors almost always meet.
