London / Hong Kong – April 2025 – Hightekers, a leading provider of Employer of Record (EOR) and HR outsourcing solutions, has announced the acquisition of Eos Group, a major EOR provider with over 15 years of experience across key Asian markets. The deal marks a pivotal milestone in Hightekers’ global growth strategy and further reinforces its commitment to delivering seamless, compliant employment solutions for businesses operating across borders.
Founded in London and Paris in 2016, Hightekers has built a strong presence across Europe, North America, India, and MEA. With the addition of Eos, which was established in Tokyo in 2010 and rapidly became one of Asia’s first regional EOR providers, the combined group now operates directly in 25 countries across four continents.
“This is more than just a strategic acquisition — it’s the fusion of two strong, complementary forces,” said Roger Oudiz, Chairman of Hightekers. “With Eos, we now directly operate in 25 countries across four continents, enabling us to support our clients and their global workforce with broader reach, deeper expertise, and unmatched operational excellence.”
“We are thrilled to join the Hightekers family,” said Chris Alderson, Founder of Eos. “Our shared values — client-centricity, agility, and innovation — make this partnership a natural fit. Together, we’re positioned to redefine what it means to work and hire globally.”
A combined powerhouse in global HR & EOR
With this acquisition, Hightekers and Eos will form a combined team of 140 HR, legal, payroll, and technology professionals, directly supporting thousands of workers and hundreds of clients across a broad range of industries. The move not only strengthens Hightekers’ service offering in Asia, but also enables the group to streamline its global delivery model.
The combined organisation will maintain service continuity for all clients while focusing on enhancing offerings and aligning systems. Planned integration initiatives include:
- Joint product development and client-focused strategies
- Unified global compliance and payroll frameworks
- Cross-regional best practices sharing, workshops, and cultural exchange programs
Meeting the needs of modern global employers
As more companies adopt distributed teams, remote hiring, and cross-border operations, the demand for flexible and compliant employment solutions has surged. The Hightekers–Eos combination addresses this need by offering faster onboarding, reliable compliance, and local insight — all through a single partner.
From Employer of Record to umbrella services, the group’s expanded capabilities aim to support modern businesses in scaling internationally without the complexity of entity setup or regulatory risk.
