Job description
- ️Company Mission
The world's workforce migration platform, reducing economic inequality by giving workers the freedom to live in any country.
About Us
Borderless is breaking down borders. In many countries, there are huge workforce shortages in important sectors like healthcare, construction and education. At the same time, there are talented people all over the world looking to migrate for greater economic opportunity. Unfortunately, borders and bureaucracy get in the way.
We're starting in the UK care sector where the problem is particularly acute. Care providers currently turn away large numbers of families who need care, because they simply don't have the staff. On the other hand, we here horror stories of candidates being charged £20,000 by unethical recruiters to get jobs in the UK. We believe something must change.
Borderless is a technology platform that streamlines international hiring and sponsorship for both employers and candidates, enabling employers to fill their staffing shortages and workers to migrate for new opportunities. Our software means employers can ethically source, hire and relocate staff without needing to become an expert in UK immigration law. Candidates are supported throughout the process, ensuring a smooth adjustment to life in the UK.
We've just closed our seed round, backed by some of the UK's leading investors (Entrepreneur First and Backed.VC) and growing hyper quickly.
