# Outsourcery > Skilled, UK-aligned professionals based in South Africa, hired and employed for you. Build your team without compromising on quality, cost, speed to hire or risk. Outsourcery helps UK businesses build remote teams through three hiring models: - FLEX: fractional support from 20 hours a month on a rolling monthly contract. Outsourcery is the legal employer. Support can often be allocated within 48 hours, and hours scale up or down as needs change. - DIRECT: a full-time professional recruited to your brief for any remotable role. Outsourcery remains the legal employer, handling contracts, payroll, benefits, leave and compliance. Most roles are filled within 28 days, typically saving up to 40% against an equivalent UK hire. - RECRUIT: a one-off placement where Outsourcery sources and vets candidates to your brief, and you interview, select and become their direct employer from day one. Under FLEX and DIRECT, Outsourcery is the employer of record and manages payroll, HR and compliance. Under RECRUIT, the client employs the person directly. ## Pages - [Home](/): Build a better team without the trade-offs. - [Book a call](/book-a-call): Book a no-pressure call to explore your hiring needs. - [FAQ](/faq): Answers on hiring models, costs, contracts, employment and getting started. - [Blog](/blog): Practical insights on hiring, building remote teams and scaling UK businesses. - [Article archive](/blog/archive): Complete index of every published article. - [Case studies](/case-studies): Real examples of UK teams built with Outsourcery. - [Hiring guide](/hiring-guide): Free practical guide to hiring without the usual trade-offs. - [Newsletter](/newsletter): Monthly UK-focused newsletter on hiring and building remote teams. - [Partner programme](/partner-programme): Refer a UK business and earn commission on every placement. - [Careers](/careers): Build a long-term remote career working with UK businesses. - [Privacy](/privacy): Privacy policy. - [Terms](/terms): Terms and conditions. - [Cookies](/cookies): Cookie policy. ## Optional - [UK graduate hiring has nearly halved](/blog/uk-graduate-hiring-has-nearly-halved-0rwu): What the collapse in graduate vacancies means for SMEs. - [AI isn't your excuse not to delegate](/blog/ai-isn-t-your-excuse-not-to-delegate-gk7d): Where automation stops and hiring starts. - [Employment tribunal time limits just doubled](/blog/employment-tribunal-time-limits-just-doubled-yq1q): What the change means for UK employers. - [Oscar Propulsion built a cross-functional team](/case-studies/oscar-propulsion-built-a-cross-functional-team): Operations, marketing and technical hires built through Outsourcery. - [Bulbshare built its creative capacity](/case-studies/bulbshare-0k5n): Dedicated design and video support for a customer collaboration platform. - [West London Business](/case-studies/west-london-business-q19n): Lasting executive support for a UK membership organisation. - [Full article index](/llms-full.txt): Complete text of every published article.
