Case Study: Global financial services company achieves streamlined EMEA payroll and onboarding with Mercans

Transformative and scalable solution for sourcing, onboarding and payrolling across EMEA

Mercans worked with a global financial services company in the payments technology sector that had previously relied on multiple vendors across EMEA to source, onboard, and pay contingent workers. The company wanted to recruit better-qualified consultants, speed up immigration, improve the end-user experience, consolidate suppliers, and reduce costs, while supporting a growing service line across the region.

Mercans implemented a scalable PEO and HR/payroll advisory solution using its Mesaar ATS and HR Blizz HRMS, along with dedicated HR and payroll specialists, in-country support, visa processing, and access to a proprietary candidate database. The result was a transition to a single provider across 16 EMEA countries, full statutory compliance, one global contact point, a single dashboard, and automated payroll that delivered a 20% savings in total payroll cost.
