The Problem: Operational Bottlenecks and Burnout
A growing tech company based in Toronto was struggling to keep pace with data demands. Their in-house team spent too much time manually verifying information (a critical but time-consuming task) that slowed operations and distracted staff from more strategic work.
As volume increased, the company’s internal bandwidth couldn’t scale fast enough. Hiring locally wasn’t cost-effective, and the timeline to build a new team from scratch would take months — time they couldn’t afford to lose.
Their Needs Were Clear:
- Hire a specialized team quickly
- Ensure data accuracy and quality
- Lower operating costs
- Offload payroll and compliance tasks
- Navigate outsourcing for the first time
The HR manager needed a partner that could move quickly, understand their requirements, and take the guesswork out of global hiring.
The 1840 & Company Approach: Speed, Simplicity, and Strategic Execution
1840 & Company was discovered through a simple Google search, but it was the first conversation that sealed the deal. After speaking with our team, the client felt confident they had found a partner who could deliver.
We immediately engaged our AI Global Talent Cloud of pre-vetted professionals in the Philippines. Leveraging localized sourcing expertise and proven recruitment workflows, we built and onboarded a six-person data verification team in just 14 days.
Key components of our solution included:
- Offshore sourcing from the Philippines for cost-effective, high-quality talent
- Candidate screening and shortlisting based on role-specific criteria
- End-to-end onboarding and setup, handled by our in-market team
- Full payroll support, including currency conversion and compliance
- Ongoing communication with the client’s HR team for alignment and feedback
The Results: A 2-Week Turnaround and 6-Figure Savings
The engagement delivered immediate impact. The client went from strategy to execution in under two weeks — and avoided the time, cost, and complexity of building an in-house team.
What they gained:
- A full team operational within 14 days
- $232K in annual labor cost savings
- A scalable solution that evolves with their needs
- A trusted global hiring partner
Most importantly, 1840 helped the client achieve something they couldn’t do on their own: scale operational capacity fast without adding internal headcount.
Feedback & Lessons Learned
While the overall experience was overwhelmingly positive, the client offered thoughtful feedback: as a first-time outsourcing partner, they would have benefited from more onboarding support and a centralized dashboard for visibility.
We’ve since taken that feedback into our process and continue to evolve our client experience to match.
