As flexible and remote work becomes increasingly prevalent, companies are changing the way they hire, manage, and pay their talent. A direct correlation between remote work and global expansion is also taking place, said Rick Hammell, CEO of Element Global Services.

He added, “The old way of doing things is over and this shift creates complexity that can only be solved by scale and technology. Today, with the right technology, geographic location is no longer a barrier to global hiring, managing a remote workforce and business growth.”

Hammell was speaking as Element Global Services received the Gold Award for Best Mobility & Relocation Solution, which recognises the company’s commitment to be the best mobility HR business partner that provides leading solutions and services to global clients.

Even before the pandemic prompted a rise in remote work, Elements has been investing heavily in HR technology. Since 2019, they have opened more than 15 offices across the EMEA, LATAM, and APAC regions, hiring their own remote workforce globally to provide real-time, direct, and local assistance to clients, wherever they choose to employ or work.

They have also helped more than 300 businesses expand globally while onboarding, managing, and paying more than 3,500 worksite employees in over 160 countries.

Hammell said, “We are at the crossroads of a seismic moment for managing talent and achieving business success. Our deeper and stronger scale, to now serve more than 160 countries, coupled with our dedication to technology, will position existing and future clients for success with faster speed to market and greater agility.”

On Element’s win in the Best Mobility & Relocation Solution category, he attributed the win to an experienced team of lawyers and immigration experts who advise, organise, and ultimately deliver clients’ employees to their target markets in complete compliance with all local requirements.

“Our dedicated team of professionals support clients and their employees throughout the entire process, acting as an extension of their HR team,” Hammell continued. “As borders continue to reopen gradually, we anticipate greater demand for mobility and relocation solutions from our clients. We will continue our service excellence to provide the best mobility and relocation solution and help businesses in the region to expand and enter new markets with speed and full compliance.”
