Case Study: Phenom achieves rapid global hiring and location flexibility with Globalization Partners

How Phenom Gives Their Team Location Flexibility

Phenom, a global HR technology company that helps people find the right job, faced a time-sensitive challenge after acquiring Amsterdam-based Endouble: many transferring employees were located in Spain and Italy where Phenom had no legal entities. To retain and rapidly scale its EMEA workforce while offering location flexibility, Phenom partnered with Globalization Partners and used its AI-driven, fully compliant global Employer of Record platform to enable compliant hiring and onboarding anywhere.

Globalization Partners implemented Employer of Record services that delivered transparent, fast onboarding and local compliance support—employees received answers within 24 hours and transfers proceeded smoothly—allowing Phenom to hire and retain talent it would previously have had to pass on (for example, candidates relocating from Ireland to Spain). The partnership sped time-to-hire, preserved critical post-acquisition talent, and positioned Phenom for further expansion (including APAC), backed by Globalization Partners’ industry-leading capabilities and reported 97% customer satisfaction.
