Case Study: Wren hires and relocates an international team member with Plane

How Wren used Plane’s EOR services to hire and move a team member internationally

WREN, a fully remote climate-focused startup founded in 2019, needed a way to hire and move a team member internationally without getting bogged down in cross-border employment and immigration complexity. The company used Plane’s contractor and employer of record (EOR) services to support Thomas Hollands as he transitioned from working in Switzerland to becoming a full-time employee in Canada.

Plane guided WREN and Thomas through the move, handled much of the administrative and immigration paperwork, and helped verify border documents and arrange healthcare benefits. The result was a smooth transition that saved both Thomas and WREN significant time, while making it possible for WREN to hire an international employee that would have been difficult to manage on their own.
