Hire Employees in Germany Without Establishing a German Entity
Entering the German market often begins with a single employee. However, establishing a local company before you’re ready can be time-consuming, expensive, and administratively demanding.
Gibbesch Consulting’s Employer of Record (EoR) service enables international companies to employ staff in Germany quickly and compliantly. While your employee works exclusively for your business, we become the legal employer in Germany, taking responsibility for employment administration, payroll, and compliance with German employment regulations. This allows you to focus on growing your business while we handle the legal framework behind the employment.
A Partner with German Expertise
Germany has one of Europe’s most regulated employment environments. Understanding payroll obligations, social security contributions, immigration requirements, and employer responsibilities requires local expertise.
Our consultants specialize exclusively in Germany. We support companies throughout the hiring process, from the initial planning stage to onboarding and ongoing employment administration. Instead of navigating multiple providers, you benefit from one experienced partner who understands both German bureaucracy and international business needs.
How Does the Service Work?
After discussing your hiring plans, we prepare a transparent cost calculation based on the employee’s salary and the applicable employer costs. Once the service agreement is in place, we employ the individual under German law while your company remains responsible for the employee’s day-to-day work, performance, and business objectives.
If immigration support is required, we coordinate the visa and relocation process alongside the employment setup, allowing your employee to start work as efficiently as possible.
Is an Employer of Record Right for Your Company?
Our Employer of Record service is particularly suitable for companies that want to enter the German market without immediately establishing a German subsidiary, hire remote employees based in Germany, or employ specialists who require immigration support. It is also an effective solution for businesses testing the market before making a long-term investment.
