Companies in Montpellier, France that want to employ engineering talent in India without opening a local entity can use Pitch N Hire as their Employer of Record. PNH legally employs each hire on your behalf and manages payroll, tax, benefits and statutory compliance, so a Montpellier business can build a compliant offshore team quickly and focus on the work rather than the paperwork.
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs workers on your behalf in a country where you have no entity, taking on payroll, tax withholding, benefits, contracts and statutory compliance while the worker delivers under your day-to-day direction. Pitch N Hire's EOR strength is India: it lets a business anywhere hire and retain Indian engineering talent compliantly — with correct employment contracts, payroll and provident-fund/tax handling — without registering an Indian subsidiary. This removes the cost, delay and legal risk of setting up a foreign entity, and pairs naturally with staff augmentation when you want PNH to both source and employ your offshore team.
You identify the person you want to employ in India — either someone Pitch N Hire sourced for you, or a candidate you found yourself who you want employed compliantly.
PNH issues a locally-compliant Indian employment contract with the correct terms, benefits and statutory entitlements, so the engagement is legally sound from day one.
The employee is onboarded onto PNH's Indian payroll, with tax, provident fund and benefits configured correctly — no Indian entity or local finance function needed on your side.
The employee works under your day-to-day direction, in your tools and process, while PNH remains the legal employer of record for compliance purposes.
PNH runs monthly payroll, tax filings, statutory contributions and HR administration, and keeps everything compliant as regulations change — you get a report, not a paperwork burden.
As your Employer of Record in India, Pitch N Hire takes on the full employment burden:
Montpellier is among France's fastest-expanding cities, with a young, student-heavy population feeding a lively digital scene. Its economy leans into health-tech and medical software, video-game studios, agritech and e-commerce, supported by a French Tech ecosystem and one of the country's largest universities. Growth outpaces the maturing senior-engineering pool, so junior and mid-level talent is plentiful while experienced leads can be competitive to secure.
Montpellier's talent is notably young and university-fed, with a strong flow of web, mobile, game-development and full-stack graduates from the University of Montpellier and local engineering schools. There is real depth in JavaScript, PHP, Python and game engines, plus a growing health-informatics niche. The abundance of early-career developers is a genuine advantage, though depth in senior architecture and specialised roles is still catching up with the city's rapid growth.
Montpellier developer pay is among the more affordable of France's tech hubs — senior engineers often in the region of EUR 42k–EUR 62k gross, with junior rates markedly lower. For companies needing senior capacity quickly, or scaling faster than the local senior pool allows, offshore India-based engineers through PNH add experienced delivery alongside strong local early-career hiring.
PNH complements Montpellier's fast-growing, junior-rich market by supplying offshore senior and specialist capacity: vetted India-based engineers employed through an Employer of Record on Central European Time overlap. Local teams keep hiring young web, mobile and game talent, while offshore pods bring the senior architecture and delivery muscle that a rapidly scaling ecosystem often still lacks — with no French entity required.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Montpellier team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
