What the difference feels like:
We spent four months trying to hire in the US. We engaged Cloud Employee and had two full-time developers onboarded in one week. The guys have been working with us for two years and we're now up to a team of six.
Seb and the team take great care of their staff, and you can see their focus on quality in the candidates they present. A reliable resourcing partner who genuinely understand the nuances of good staff augmentation.
Our new developers were able to hit the ground running, we've worked with them for over two years now, and they are truly part of our team.
Working with Cloud Employee developers is great, because they're not afraid to push back. They're proactive, they're positive, and they feel like part of our team.
Working with Michael is great (our CE developer) - he's dedicated, very skilled, embedded right into our team, and really fits into our working culture. We just wish he lived closer so we could have him in office from time to time!

No - you can hire just one employee and receive the same excellent level of service.
You feed this back to your dedicated UK-Based Account Manager who will then work with you to find solutions. We have a robust HR team physically on-the-ground in our Philippines and Latin America offices, who work with our learning and development. Sometimes peer training with our other developers, or a conversation with our CTO quickly improves any issues.
If not, we find you a new hire, free of charge.
Yes absolutely. Developers plug directly into your day-to-day communication channels - company email, Slack channels, Discord, etc. Your developer is fully integrated into your team, even down to updating their LinkedIn with your company as their employer if you would prefer.
In fact, if you hire more than 4 developers, we will also contribute £2,000 toward a trip for your developer to visit you, or for you to visit our beautiful offices in Manilla and/or Latin America to meet and work with your developers at our offices in person once per year.
We recently scaled a full technical team of 28 developers and technical experts for a UK-Based company in one month. If you provide us all of the information we need, we can move very quickly.
We implement strict security protocols, including secure communication channels, data encryption, and non-disclosure agreements. We also comply with industry-specific regulations and can provide relevant certifications upon request.We can hire project managers specifically for your project for you. We also advise you on the level of seniority and team mix required for your project and wider company needs - ensuring you have the right people to self-manage.
Expect to talk through your needs and for us to offer you support and advice. From there, if we’re a good fit, we set you up with a CTO and UK-Based Account Manager call to provide feedback and/or develop job descriptions alongside you.
Entirely. Forget one-off jobs, security risks and project to project work. Read more here.
We encourage clients to visit our offices to meet and spend time working with their Cloud Employee team. We’ve made sure that our offices are well-equipped and always welcoming to our clients.
In fact, if you hire 4 or more Cloud Employees, we will cover your flights and accommodation to visit our offices and work with your team (and escape UK winter!). This is up to £2,000 of value.
