Frequently asked questions

Why outsource to Colombia?

Colombia is a strong nearshore staffing hub: year-round UTC-5 overlap with North American business hours, bilingual English–Spanish talent, and deep pools in professional and digital roles. Nearshore means real-time collaboration in the same workday—not a follow-the-sun handoff. You get dedicated full-time staff, not a rotating BPO seat: Outsourced recruits and employs them locally as Employer of Record, you interview and manage the work, and people sit on company hardware under ISO 9001 and ISO 27001. Across Outsourced, retention is over 98%, with AI upskilling through the AI Academy, 14+ years in staffing, 450+ clients, and 1,800+ staff.

What roles are commonly outsourced to Colombia?

High-demand nearshore roles include community managers, software developers, data analysts and data scientists, project managers, accountants, copywriters, translators, paralegals, and architecture support. We also place admin, CX, and finance seats. Every candidate is screened for the role (including English where needed); you interview before we employ them for you.

Why is Colombia the best nearshore destination?

Colombia is one of the strongest nearshore destinations for companies that want same-day overlap with North America. It sits in UTC-5 year-round, so teams can work the same day as your office instead of a handoff overnight. You get dedicated full-time nearshore staff, not a rotating BPO seat: Outsourced recruits and employs them locally as Employer of Record, you interview and manage the work, and people sit on company hardware under ISO 9001 and ISO 27001. English–Spanish bilingual coverage is a real option for customer and internal teams. Across Outsourced, retention is over 98%, with AI upskilling through the AI Academy, 14+ years in staffing, 450+ clients, and 1,800+ staff.

How does hiring staff in Colombia with Outsourced work?

You hire dedicated nearshore people in Colombia who work only for your company. We source, screen (including English and role skill), and employ them under Colombian labour law. You choose who joins, set tools and priorities, and run day-to-day work. Typical deploy is 2 to 6 weeks. Pricing is salary plus a fixed monthly service fee, with a 30-day notice period and no long lock-in.

Do I need a Colombian company to hire there?

No. Outsourced is the Employer of Record. We hold the local employment relationship (contracts, payroll, benefits, compliance), so you do not need a Colombian entity or to run people as contractors. That matters in Colombia, where full-time contractor setups are high-risk. You keep operational control; we run the legal employer side, hardware, and ISO controls.

What time zone overlap does Colombia give my team?

Colombia is UTC-5 year-round—the nearshore advantage versus Asia hubs. That lines up closely with North American Eastern Time and sits near Central, so stand-ups, support, finance, and ops can share a full workday. UK and other European teams still get usable afternoon overlap. Staff work the hours you agree; we do not assume a night shift unless you want one.

Who manages Colombia staff, and will they stay?

You manage daily work, systems, and performance. Outsourced provides HR, IT, workspace or remote setup, Client Success, and company-issued devices on our secure network. People are dedicated employees, not bench resources, with ongoing training through Outsourced University / the AI Academy. Group retention is over 98%, which is the point of a staff-lease model versus a rotating call-centre seat.
