Companies in Manila, Philippines 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 Manila 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:
Metro Manila is the economic and outsourcing heart of the Philippines, hosting the country's largest concentration of BPO and IT-BPM operations, shared-services centres, banks and a growing fintech scene across Makati, BGC, Ortigas and Quezon City. Volume hiring for customer experience, technical support and finance roles is constant, while software, cloud and data engineering demand has risen as digital-services firms and startups expand.
Manila talent is defined by exceptional English fluency and a very large, service-oriented workforce experienced in customer support, finance-and-accounting and IT-enabled services. Software talent centres on web and mobile development, .NET, Java, PHP, Python and QA, backed by universities like UP, De La Salle and Ateneo. High attrition in BPO and competition for senior engineers make structured screening and fast pipelines valuable for local employers.
Manila offers competitive costs versus Western markets: senior software engineers commonly sit around ₱1.2M–₱2.4M per year, with BPO and support roles considerably lower. Employers still compete on pay for scarce senior and specialised engineering skills. Where local supply is tight, blending in offshore India-based engineers through staff augmentation can extend capacity at a comparable or lower blended cost.
For Manila employers who cannot fill every senior or niche engineering seat locally, Pitch N Hire can add an offshore India-based pod through staff augmentation — vetted engineers who overlap the full Manila workday given only a 2.5-hour time gap. PNH handles sourcing, vetting and, via its India Employer of Record, employment and compliance, so a Manila team scales capacity without a new local entity.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Manila 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.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
