Hiring in Pakistan can be a great way to build your team. But finding the right people is only the first step. Managing employment, payroll, HR, benefits and all the day-to-day people matters in another country is a different job altogether.
Who handles payroll? What happens when someone needs health insurance? Who deals with leave, contracts, equipment, internet and all the quick questions that come up during the week?
You could build your own HR setup in Pakistan. Or you could work with a local partner that already has the people and processes in place. That’s what we do at East Consulting.
Why are more businesses hiring in Pakistan?
Because there’s skilled talent across a lot more fields than many businesses realize. If you’re a US or Canadian business looking to grow, Pakistan lets you look beyond your local talent market. You can build teams across areas like.

One hire or a whole department, there’s room to find the right people. And it’s not just about hiring at a lower cost. It’s about finding people who become part of your team and help get the work done.
What about the time zone?
If you need your Pakistan team to work Eastern Time, that’s already a familiar arrangement for many IT professionals in Pakistan. It’s common and it usually isn’t the hurdle North American companies expect it to be.
Hiring is easy to talk about. Managing a team is where it gets complicated.
Finding a great candidate is the start. Everything after that is the real work. Once you’ve chosen someone, there’s an employment arrangement, a contract, onboarding, payroll, benefits and everything they need to get started. Then there’s the ongoing work that comes with having employees:

What if you don’t need everything?
That’s fine. We can shape the support around what your team needs. Some companies want us to take care of the full people function. Others need help with recruitment, contracts, payroll and HR, while they already have their own office setup.
We’ll talk through what you need and work out the right arrangement. We’re not here to push services you don’t need.
What does East Consulting’s EOR service cost?
Our EOR service is USD 199 per employee, per month. You can find the details on our pricing or use our cost calculator to estimate what building your team in Pakistan could cost.
We’re here for the long haul as your team grows
Your first hire is just the start. We’re here as your team and needs evolve. As your team changes, you may need more hires, additional employee support, different benefits or new office arrangements.
We work with North American companies to help build and support their teams in Pakistan. We aim to be a partner you can rely on as those needs change.
Our team under East Consulting feels just like a team we have here in Canada. EC made hiring smooth and hassle free, quickly responding to our needs even during the pandemic.
What can hiring in Pakistan mean for your business?
Hiring in Pakistan can help you reach the talent you need while making more of your hiring budget. For some businesses, that means growing a department. For others, it means finding specialized talent they couldn’t find locally or building a team without setting up a local HR operation from scratch. Every company’s situation is different, but the right people and support can make a real difference.
