Who we are

Employment Hero is on a mission to make employment easier and more valuable for everyone. Our Employment Operating System brings hiring, HR, payroll and benefits into an all-in-one solution. Since our inception in 2014, we've scaled to a $2 billion valuation and gained a presence in 6 countries globally – Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, the UK and Canada. We now serve over 300,000 businesses and more than 2 million employees.

The EH Way

  • We are Mission First – everything we do (from what we work on, to how we allocate capital and where we focus) is driven by our Mission
  • We are Remote First – we champion a remote environment with a preference for asynchronous communication and a high degree of autonomy
  • We are AI First – we are committed to using AI to accelerate our mission; AI is not just a tool, it's a fundamental part of how we operate, innovate, and scale
  • We are Apolitical – we do not take a position on political or social topics, unless it relates to our Mission
  • We Live by Our Values – we role model our values 100% of the time
  • We Expect High Performance – we set a high standard and we're not satisfied with being average
