Tailored Recruitment
Cross-Cultural HR
Global Mobility
Enphase’s rapid growth did not only see them expand to Australia, but also to various other bases including the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands and Latin America.
This rapid development gave rise to cross-cultural HR and Recruitment needs. More specifically, Enphase required candidates and leading talent in renewable energy for a number of different countries of operation.
As a result, Enphase sought an extensive candidate pool of experts in the renewable energy field in several regions of the world. Enphase’s operation across a number of different time-zones meant they also needed to source candidates right around the clock.
Recruiting an international team also raised compliance concerns for Enphase. More specifically, Enphase had concerns in ensuring their employment contracts were wholly compliant with the laws & legislation for each specific country of operation.
As Enphase’s chosen cross-cultural partner, we understood that they needed holistic solutions across a number of different fronts.
As part of our custom-tailored solution, we provided Enphase with our Global Mobility solution, which means that we became the sole Employer of Record in several countries around the globe.. As another feature of this solution, the entire external recruitment function was transferred to Anávo’s recruitment team, including the task of sourcing candidates. Our dedicated consultants worked with our international offices in all major time-zones to source the very best talent.
Our commitment to Enphase’s growth saw us go the extra mile to ensure we were helping them expand in the right direction. As Global Key Account Manager for Enphase, Anávo’s VP, Jan Rieche took part in the annual “Global Sales Kick-Off” meeting in Petaluma, California to determine Enphase’s sales and growth strategy for the coming year.
In addition, we worked closely with the senior management of Enphase in Europe, to ensure best practice for increasing market share and aiding team expansion.
Our solution was tailored to resolve Enphase’s each and every concern. As the external recruitment function became our sole responsibility, we used our extensive international networks to source the best talent in the Renewable Energy Sector.
As Anávo has offices in every major time zone, the time differences were not an issue in sourcing talent. As a result, Enphase had to invest very little energy into recruitment, yet gained access to leading candidates. Overall, we recruited more than 20 candidates for various geographic locations.
With the help of our cross-cultural partners, we acquired local knowledge to ensure Enphase was wholly compliant with local laws & legislation. As we were the employer of record, Enphase’s could rest assured that the business was never threatened by a mistake in this area, which is always important for a company listed on NASDAQ or elsewhere. As a result, Enphase did not waste time researching local laws and legislation, and thereby could focus all of their energy on the business itself.
Overall, we mobilised our international team to meet Enphase’s cross-cultural talent needs and ensure best practice for their global expansion.
