Remofirst empowers employers to be free from geographical boundaries when accessing talent, allowing employees to pursue opportunities wherever they may exist. We are on a mission to revolutionize the industry and be a generational company.

Our platform offers a full range people and payroll management tools, employee benefits like health insurance, and financial benefits, and enables clients to hire anyone from anywhere with one click. Remofirst manages employees and contractors for Fortune 500 companies (e.g., Microsoft, Mastercard), renowned businesses (e.g., ZocDoc, Boston Consulting Group, World Health Organization), and some of the best startups worldwide (e.g., TransferGo).

We are a small but strong team of just over 90 people (and growing) hyper-focused on delivering a world-class platform and unparalleled service with our industry-leading partnerships.

  • Collaboration: we love to work together with all sorts of different people in all sorts of different places. Everyone’s opinion matters to get the job done.
  • Independence and autonomy: as we work, we’re naturally independent. As much as we’re connected, you will also need to use your own initiative to solve problems and get answers; this also means reaching out to us to get help or confirm a solution
