Your data stays where it belongs

Offshore team. Onshore data.

Most BPO providers route your data through servers in the Philippines, India, or the US. If you're in a regulated industry, that's a compliance risk you can't afford. Umbrella Talent's model is built around the opposite principle.

Common questions

Quick answers, then the guide.

What industries do your offshore staff support?

IT & helpdesk, software development, finance & accounting, creative & design, customer service & sales, and general administration. The guide covers 23+ roles across these six sectors with detailed monthly benchmarks.

How quickly can I get started?

Most roles can be filled within 3–4 weeks. Once requirements are defined, we handle recruitment, security onboarding, infrastructure setup, and HR — so your new team member is productive from day one with full data security in place.

Are these prices really all-in?

Yes. Every figure covers salary, secure infrastructure, IT, payroll, HR, and compliance. One monthly invoice, no separate vendors, no hidden line items.

Will this work for our compliance posture?

Because all data stays within Australian data centres and is accessed through enterprise-grade security protocols (SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001), the model is designed to meet the requirements of financial services, healthcare, legal, and other regulated sectors.
