Engagement Model

The Outsourced Model

A long-term, ongoing engagement where YVP finds, places and continues to support your remote team member, while you focus purely on directing their work.

What it actually is

The Outsourced Model is an end-to-end recruitment and contractor support service. YVP manages the recruitment process from sourcing and screening through to placement, then continues to support your contractors after they start. This includes the ongoing administration and support required to keep your contractors engaged and performing, while taking the day-to-day employment and HR responsibilities off your business. You get the people you need, with YVP providing ongoing support throughout the contractor journey.

Who leads what

• You lead the work. Day-to-day priorities, tasks, performance and direction stay entirely in your hands, exactly as if the person sat down the hall from you.
• YVP leads the administration. Applicable HR, payroll and retention support are managed under the agreement, so the ongoing employment relationship stays properly supported without becoming your responsibility.
• Both sides stay involved after the start date. Unlike a one-off placement, this isn't a "hand it over and walk away" arrangement. YVP continues the agreed onboarding, review and ongoing support arrangements for as long as the engagement runs.

Why businesses choose it

The businesses that gravitate toward this model usually have the same underlying need: they want the stability of a permanent-feeling team member, without wanting to become an HR department in the process. That's especially true for smaller teams where there's no internal capacity to manage payroll compliance, retention strategy, or the administrative overhead that comes with directly employing someone, particularly someone based offshore.

It also suits businesses that expect the role to grow or evolve over time. Because YVP stays involved past the placement, adjustments to scope, workload or support can be discussed and managed as an ongoing conversation rather than requiring a brand new hiring process every time something changes.

YVP provides ongoing HR and contractor support, including performance management, expectation setting and addressing any issues that may arise. Where performance concerns occur, we can work with the contractor and your business to develop and implement improvement plans, with the goal of resolving issues, improving performance and helping the working relationship move forward.
