Hire and Manage Talent Across Africa Without Local Entity Setup

Establishing a legal entity in African markets is costly, time-consuming, and often unnecessary for organisations focused on accessing talent rather than building operational infrastructure.

Motherland Business Advisory's Employer of Record (EOR) service enables organisations, investors, and diaspora-led ventures to hire and manage talent across Africa compliantly—without the need for local incorporation. We act as the legal employer while you retain full operational control of your team.

EOR Services Africa
Who retains operational control of employees?
You do. Motherland acts as the legal employer for compliance purposes, but clients maintain full control over day-to-day management, performance expectations, work assignments, and strategic direction.
Which African countries does the EOR service cover?
We currently support EOR services in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and select additional markets. Coverage is expanding based on client demand and regulatory readiness.
Is this suitable for long-term hiring or just short-term contractors?
Both. The EOR model works for permanent employees, fixed-term contracts, and project-based engagements. It provides flexibility to scale teams up or down without entity constraints.
Can this be combined with other advisory services?
Yes. EOR is often engaged alongside market entry advisory, corporate structuring, or investment readiness services for a comprehensive market expansion strategy.

Access to talent should not be constrained by entity requirements. This service exists to enable organisations to hire compliantly, scale efficiently, and focus on execution rather than administrative burden across African markets.
