Employee & Local Business Contact Search Services in Singapore

Your recruitment and supplier search tasks in Singapore – we can handle it

Two things trip up almost every founder relocating to or expanding into Singapore without existing local ties: finding the right people to hire, and finding the right people to work with — accountants, bankers, suppliers, and other local contacts most business owners take for granted at home. This page covers how we help with both. If you’d rather handle recruitment yourself, our complete hiring guide walks through the legal process step by step — this page is for founders who’d rather we handle it.

Employee Search & Recruitment Support

We help you go from “we need to hire” to an actual signed employee, without you having to learn Singapore’s hiring process from scratch.

  • Role scoping — defining the position, required skills, and realistic salary benchmarks for the Singapore market
  • Candidate sourcing across MyCareersFuture, LinkedIn, and local job boards
  • Shortlisting and coordinating interviews
  • Drafting compliant offer letters and employment contracts, including Key Employment Terms (KETs)

For foreign hires, we also handle the work pass side — Employment Pass applications, or S Pass and Work Permit applications, including the mandatory MyCareersFuture job posting period where applicable.

Once someone’s hired, ongoing CPF contributions and payroll can be managed through our accounting services as well, so hiring and payroll compliance stay in one place rather than split across providers.

Local Business Contact & Network Introductions

Beyond hiring, many foreign founders simply don’t know who to call for the things a local business owner would take for granted — a reliable auditor, the right bank contact, an insurance broker, or a supplier in their industry. We make introductions from our own network, built over years of operating in Singapore, so you’re not starting from zero.

  • Introductions to auditors, when your company requires one
  • Bank relationship introductions — useful when a straightforward digital application isn’t the right fit for your situation
  • Referrals to insurance providers, including mandatory Work Injury Compensation Insurance for employees performing manual labour or earning below S$2,600/month
  • Industry-specific supplier and service-provider introductions, based on your sector

If you’re still deciding which bank fits your situation before you need an introduction, see our guide to banks for business in Singapore.

Who This Is For

  • Foreign founders who’ve just registered a company and have no existing local network
  • Companies making their first Singapore hire and unfamiliar with local hiring norms and compliance
  • Businesses that want recruitment and local introductions handled by people who already know the market, rather than learning it from scratch under time pressure

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you only help with foreign hires, or local hires too?

Yes we can help with both. Local hiring is generally faster and doesn’t involve a work pass application, but still requires compliant contracts, KETs, and CPF registration — we handle all those.

Yes, though timelines and approach vary by seniority and how niche the required skill set is — this is discussed as part of the initial scoping conversation.

No — an EOR legally employs staff on your behalf without you needing a Singapore entity. This service assumes you have (or are registering) your own company and want help finding and hiring people directly, plus building your local network.
