Your Outsourcing & Offshore Staffing Questions, Answered

NexOutsource recruits, hires, and manages dedicated staff in Fiji who work exclusively for your business. We handle the office space, IT infrastructure, HR, and payroll while you direct the day-to-day work, giving you full operational control without the overhead of setting up a foreign entity. It's like having your own Fiji office, without the complexity.

Most teams are operational within three to four weeks of signing. This includes recruitment, vetting, onboarding, and setting up workstations and system access. For urgent requirements, we can sometimes fast-track the process using our existing talent pool in Suva.

You can start with as few as one dedicated team member. Many of our clients begin with a small team of 2 to 3 people and scale up as they see results. There is no minimum headcount requirement to get started with NexOutsource.

No, the entire onboarding process can be completed remotely via video calls and our online collaboration tools. That said, many of our NZ and Australian clients enjoy visiting their Fiji team once they're established, it's a great team-building experience, and Fiji is only a short flight away.

Onboarding includes a discovery session to understand your workflows, recruitment and selection of candidates you approve, systems setup and access provisioning, and structured training on your processes. A structured onboarding plan gets your team trained on your systems and processes before they go live.

Businesses typically save 50 to 70% compared to equivalent local hires in New Zealand or Australia. This includes salary, office space, equipment, IT infrastructure, and all HR management, so the savings are genuine and all-inclusive, not just on the headline wage.
