01The situation
Hire in Mexico: what you get and how it works
Companies usually arrive with a role, not a structure. The role is the easy part, the structure determines your cost, your exposure and how fast the person can actually start. We resolve both in the same conversation.
If you have a Mexico entity, we recruit and onboard directly onto your payroll and can take on payroll and workforce administration behind it. If you do not, we employ through our Mexico infrastructure and map the transition point where your own entity becomes the better economics.
Volume changes the answer as well. One senior hire is a search problem. Forty operators before a plant ramp is a sourcing-pipeline and onboarding-logistics problem, and it is run differently.
Hire in plain terms
Recruitment vs. employment
Recruitment is finding and securing the person. Employment is the legal relationship that pays them, enrolls them in IMSS and carries the obligations. In Mexico, these two are frequently separated: we can do either or both.
Tell us the situation in one line. A Mexico specialist comes back with the route we recommend and why.

Which hiring route fits your situation
We are the only partner that can run every one of these routes for you, so the recommendation is the right one, not the only one we sell.
| Your situation | Recommended route | Who employs | Best when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mexico entity, adding named roles | Permanent recruitment | You | The role is permanent and core to your org chart |
| No entity, need people now | Employer of Record | Us | You are testing the market or moving before entity setup |
| Need flexible capacity | Employment or managed-service structure after scope review | Determined by the selected structure | The work, supervision, duration and business purpose have been reviewed |
| Defined project scope | SOW / specialized services | Us | You want deliverables and milestones, not billed hours |
| Leadership or confidential role | Executive search | You or us | The hire shapes the operation rather than staffing it |
Not sure which row is yours? Give us the roles and the timeline and we will tell you, with the cost of each option.

Answers
Frequently asked questions
The questions buyers ask us before they commit. If yours is not here, send it and a Mexico specialist answers it directly.
Ask a Mexico SpecialistCan you hire a single role, or is there a minimum?+
A single role is a normal starting point. Most long-term relationships begin with one hire, one contractor or one pilot team.
What is the difference between recruitment and staff augmentation here?+
Recruitment places a person on the client's payroll and concludes at onboarding. Staff augmentation is a buyer term for adding flexible capacity, but the lawful Mexico structure cannot be assumed from that label. We review the work, supervision, duration and business purpose, then recommend direct hire, an appropriate employment route or a provider-managed service.
Do you cover both white-collar and industrial roles?+
Yes. Engineering, IT, finance, customer experience and leadership alongside manufacturing operators, technicians, quality, maintenance and skilled trades.
How are contractors handled compliantly?+
Through contractor and AOR administration rather than direct invoicing arrangements, so classification, payment and documentation are managed against Mexican requirements.
