Case Study: Sphere enables fast remote hiring and compliant benefits with Omnipresent

Sphere - Customer Case Study

Sphere, an internet company (later acquired by Twitter), faced the challenge of legally and compliantly employing an existing employee who wanted to work remotely from Germany full-time. The key hurdles included determining his hiring status, obtaining a localized contract, and ensuring he received the same benefits as UK-based staff. After finding other legal avenues too slow and complex, they turned to the employer of record services from Omnipresent.

The Omnipresent solution provided a highly responsive and efficient process, completing the set-up in just one day. Their team managed contract amendments to align with Sphere’s benefits and provided simple automated payroll management. This positive experience led Sphere to evolve its remote work policy and it now confidently uses Omnipresent to hire full-time employees anywhere in the world, knowing it can move quickly for future remote hires.
