The Challenge

Lack of Affordable English-Proficient Talents with Technical Expertise

ANTlabs needed to hire English-proficient talents with expertise in the technical field. They quickly realized that hiring from Singapore would not be sustainable for their business.

Little Experience in Building a Remote Team Offshore

The strategy to cope with increasing pressure from a shortage of manpower without jeopardizing their customer service quality was to build remote technical and customer service teams offshore with the same level of quality as an in-house team. However, they had little experience in doing so, especially when faced with a different employment market.

The Solution

Penbrothers quickly sourced and onboarded the talent ANTlabs needed within 30 days, without disrupting their services. Beyond talent acquisition, Penbrothers provided ongoing HR and administrative support, including tax compliance, payroll management, remote team engagement, performance management, learning and development, and flexible office space solutions, ensuring ANTlabs’ seamless growth.

The Results

ANTlabs establish a 24/7 service team through its partnership with Penbrothers, delivering unwavering customer support. This collaboration unlocked access to top-tier Filipino talent, facilitated seamless remote management from Singapore, and required minimal supervision. As a result, ANTlabs achieved a 73% cost reduction per role, fueling their growth and success.
