Helping a Singapore SaaS Startup Run Its Vietnam Team with EOR Services

Founded in 2021, our client is a fast-growing SaaS startup that helps SMEs automate workflows and customer engagement through an AI-powered platform.

They were poised for rapid expansion after securing new funding, but quickly hit a challenge: recruiting in Singapore had become much more expensive and slow, with hiring cycles possibly stretching to six months.

To keep their roadmap on track, they began exploring nearby talent markets, and that’s when they found Vietnam.

A Great Market, But Hard to Enter Alone

Vietnam offered everything they were looking for: a large pool of skilled engineers, competitive costs, and strong technical capabilities.

But entering the market wasn’t as simple as it looked. Without a local presence, the company faced several major challenges:

The founders knew they needed a trusted local partner who could help them hire quickly, navigate the Vietnam market with confidence, and ensure full legal compliance. 

After thorough consideration of multiple vendors, the founders chose to engage Talent JDI.

Build & Manage a Vietnam Team, Hassle-Free

For the startup’s case, Talent JDI provided tailored EOR services designed to help the client hire, manage, and pay talent in Vietnam — all without establishing a local entity.

Our approach focused on three priorities: compliance, speed, and transparency.

A Scalable Foundation for Growth

With Talent JDI as their on-the-ground partner and end-to-end EOR services, the SaaS startup not only entered Vietnam seamlessly but also gained the flexibility to scale operations as needed — without additional legal or administrative burden.

Up to now, they are planning to expand their development capacity and explore the possibility of a full remote team setup in Vietnam with Talent JDI’s continued support.
