OFFSHORE TEAMS · BUILT IN SRI LANKA · MANAGED FOR THE UK

We minimise your work, so you can focus on what matters most.

Offset Shore builds dedicated offshore back-office teams for UK businesses — HR, payroll, recruitment, finance, compliance and daily operations. Your systems. Your hours. Your process.

THE PROBLEM

The admin is eating your margin.

Managers spending evenings on rotas and records. Qualified people doing data entry because there is no one else. Teams drowning in reconciliation, chasing, filing and follow-up. None of this is optional work — but almost none of it needs to be done by your most expensive people, in your most expensive location. That's the gap we fill.

01

UK hiring is slow and expensive

A UK admin hire costs far more than the salary once NI, pension, holiday, equipment and desk space are counted. Then you still have to find one, and keep them.

02

Your best people are doing the wrong work

Senior and qualified staff spend a large share of every week on tasks that don’t need their qualification — and that no one else has capacity to take.

03

Volume moves faster than headcount

Month-end, year-end, an inspection, a new site, a new client book. Capacity has to flex. Permanent UK headcount doesn’t.

HOW WE WORK

A dedicated team.
Not a ticket queue.

We don't sell you hours from an anonymous pool. We recruit named people to your specification, train them on your systems and processes, and embed them into your team. They join your stand-ups, use your software and work UK hours. We handle the employment, IT, security and management. You direct the work.

  1. 1

    Scope

    We map your processes and agree exactly what moves and what stays.

  2. 2

    Recruit

    We shortlist candidates against your criteria. You interview. You choose.

  3. 3

    Onboard

    Systems access, training, documented SOPs, a 30-day supervised ramp.

  4. 4

    Run

    Your team works your hours, with an Offset Shore team lead accountable for quality and continuity.
