PVcase needed to hire in 8 countries without 8 legal entities
PVcase is a company at the forefront of solar technology innovation, specializing in solar photovoltaic (PV) design solutions. It provides advanced 3D modeling tools for large-scale solar power plants, cutting project timelines and costs while improving the precision of solar energy yield predictions.
Why PVcase switched EOR providers
PVcase, with a home base in Lithuania, currently employs over 300 professionals through North America and Europe, and serves a truly worldwide market. To support their growing customer base, they need to expand to new locations and quickly hire overseas teams.
Setting up subsidiaries or entities in each new location is costly and time-consuming, especially when entering markets with an initially small headcount. Moreover, PVcase faces challenges in sourcing the right talent, particularly specialized professionals with solar engineering expertise, in new regions.
How RemotePeople onboarded PVcase’s US, Europe and Middle East hires
RemotePeople is a platform for global workforce payments. Through its Employer of Record (EOR) services, RemotePeople manages hiring, onboarding, payroll, benefits, and legal compliance for fast-growing companies like PVcase, allowing them to enter new markets without setting up local entities.
Before partnering with RemotePeople, PVcase had experienced repeated issues with other EOR providers, including delayed salary payments. They were drawn to RemotePeople for its speed of market entry and reputation for reliable, compliant service.
Monika Vasiliauskaite, Director of HR at PVcase, had previously worked with RemotePeople (previously Horizons) in another role and trusted the team’s efficiency and dependability. In particular, she valued RemotePeople’s commitment to accurate, on-time payroll, which had been a major challenge with previous providers.
With RemotePeople as their partner, PVcase quickly hired teams overseas. Employees were smoothly onboarded through RemotePeople’s EOR solution and continue to receive consistent HR and payroll support.
To date, PVcase has successfully hired in the USA, Italy, Portugal, the Netherlands, Romania, and the UAE with RemotePeople’s support. This partnership allows PVcase to remain focused on advancing solar technology while RemotePeople handles the complexities of global HR and compliance.
Working with RemotePeople has significantly streamlined our global hiring process, allowing us to swiftly and efficiently enter new markets without the need to establish local entities.
The competitive benefits packages provided through RemotePeople, particularly in the US, have been invaluable in attracting and retaining top talent.
RemotePeople has proven to be an indispensable partner in our global expansion, and we look forward to continuing this successful collaboration as we grow and tackle new challenges.
Monika emphasized
What’s next: specialized solar engineers on demand
PVcase plans to continue expanding in existing markets while using RemotePeople for new country entry. This strategy allows the company to maintain momentum in established regions without slowing down operations when entering additional markets.
Looking ahead, PVcase intends to leverage RemotePeople’s local recruitment capabilities to source highly specialized talent, from solar engineers to multilingual professionals and other niche skill sets, with on-the-ground support throughout the hiring process.
If you are considering global expansion, follow PVcase’s lead and partner with RemotePeople, the platform for global workforce payments.
