How much does it cost to hire through Tailor Made Outsourcing?
+
We charge a one-off placement fee ranging from $295 to $2,995 AUD depending on the complexity and rarity of the role. After that, 100% of the hourly rate goes directly to your contractor — no hidden margins, no ongoing commissions. Contractor rates typically range from $5–$14 AUD per hour.
What is the 30-Day Swap Promise?
+
If your new hire isn't the right fit within the first 30 days, we'll replace them at absolutely no additional cost. No uncomfortable conversations, no back and forth — just a seamless transition so your business keeps running without interruption.
Are there lock-in contracts?
+
Never. We believe in complete flexibility. Whether you need support for 3 months, 12 months, or indefinitely, the choice is entirely yours. Most clients retain their contractors well beyond 12 months simply because of the value they deliver — not because they're locked in.
What equipment does my contractor need me to provide?
+
Very little. In most cases you only need to provide access to your systems and platforms, required software licences and logins, and any internal onboarding materials. Your contractor supplies their own computer, high-speed internet, and a professional home office setup.
How long does the hiring process take?
+
It depends on the role and number of positions. For a single contractor, we can usually make it happen within 1–2 weeks. Building a full team takes a little longer. We keep things sharp, streamlined, and drama-free so you get the right talent fast.
Are your contractors employees or independent contractors?
+
Our model is built around independent contractors. This means no payroll tax, no workers compensation, no employee entitlements, and no added HR complexity on your end. Contractors manage their own local tax and compliance obligations in their home country.
Can you beat a quote I've already received?
+
Yes — and we dare you to send it. We offer a Price Beat Guarantee: if you've been quoted elsewhere, send it through and we'll beat it without cutting corners on talent quality. We specialise in sourcing high-performing global professionals at unmatched rates.
What types of roles can you outsource?
+
We cover a wide range of roles including virtual assistants, customer service, admin support, bookkeeping, digital marketing, social media management, data entry, IT support, insurance processing, sales, and more. If you have a specific role in mind,
get in touch and we'll tailor a solution for you.
How do I pay my contractor?
+
You pay your contractor directly — weekly, fortnightly, or monthly — for hours worked. There are no ongoing fees to us after the placement. Alternatively, we offer a Managed Contractor Option ($250/month per contractor) where we handle timesheets, invoicing, and contractor admin on your behalf.
Are you an Employer of Record (EOR)?
+
No — and intentionally so. We operate as a Direct-Hire Outsourcing Partner, managing the entire recruitment process from sourcing and screening to interviews and onboarding support. Once selected, your contractor works directly with you, giving you full control over performance and day-to-day management without inflated EOR costs.
