How Sweep secured top global talent and reduced hiring admin with Deel EOR

Sweep ayuda a las empresas a hacer un seguimiento de sus emisiones de carbono y a actuar sobre ellas. La plataforma basada en datos facilita la medición de las emisiones a escala, la adopción de medidas para reducir el carbono y el cumplimiento de las normas de reportes climáticos.

When Sweep was founded in 2020, they began working with Deel from essentially the beginning of their journey. Rachel Delacour, CEO and Co-Founder of Sweep, recalls the global hiring process before Deel. “Ten years ago, while managing my previous company, I realized I had to internationalize my team. Hiring people outside Europe was a real pain—a nightmare because of regulations. I wanted to scale the business quickly, but the global hiring process without an EOR (0Employer of Record) wasn’t scalable at all,” said Delacour.

Delacour se dio cuenta de que no podía encontrar todos los talentos expertos en su país de origen, así que empezó a buscar en otros países para cubrir los puestos. Sin embargo, el trabajo remoto no era una opción en ese momento, y trasladar a un empleado de otro país sería una tarea casi imposible que requeriría mucha energía, tiempo y dinero tanto para Delacour como para los candidatos.

Quería contratar a alguien de Kazajstán que encajara perfectamente en la empresa. Pero debido a la burocracia y a los problemas de la administración fiscal y el traslado, no podía contratarlos.

When Sweep was founded during the 2020 lockdown, they needed to start a remote international team from scratch, as the problem they solve is global. Delacour thought this would be a massive challenge in terms of time, money, and resources. When she learned about employer of record services and Deel EOR, suddenly it was clear how simple it could be to grow with a global team. Now their workforce would be aligned and scale with the global SaaS potential of Sweep.

"Being able to work remotely with a global team [has] been super transformative for me. I can now get access to top talent without asking them to relocate, and without my company necessarily being an enterprise. My team and any applicant can stay in their home country while enjoying working for Sweep. I’ve been able to hire in London easily, Bulgaria, the United States, and more. Every company and every talent now has the same chance. Everything is possible." said Delacour.

Sweep uses Deel EOR and Deel Contractor Management to hire both employees and contractors and loves how easy it is to use the platform. Cecile Bussy, Communications and Content Manager at Sweep, explained, “I definitely appreciate that the platform is very user friendly, but I mostly like the flexibility it provides… for me, knowing that if I want to leave the UK, I would still be able to keep working at Sweep is fantastic."

Delacour recuerda que hace solo unos años, cada vez que quería contratar a un equipo en el Reino Unido o en Estados Unidos, tenía que plantearse la creación de una filial con equipo de contadores, abogados, y la creación de una cuenta bancaria, etc. Ahora no tiene que preocuparse de nada de eso. Puede empezar a contratar en esos países con unos pocos clics y así probar la estrategia empresarial a nivel local antes de crear cualquier filial.

“Deel gives me the ability to think big and the assurance that my workforce can scale globally from day one,” said Delacour.
