Aspirock provided employee leasing services for a sales enablement platform. The team helped the client expand their business into the US by employing and paying their team from the UK and local hires.

Aspirock set up the client's US team and paid them without any hiccups or delays. The team was transparent throughout the process and reachable 24/7, which was a massive help considering the client's short deadlines. Overall, Aspirock's personable approach was a hallmark of their performance.

2-5 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We engaged with Aspirock for our international expansion into the US. This included employing and paying a mixture of our team from the UK there, along with local hires we sourced through our own recruting. They were excellent, made the process simple and were incredibly responsive throughout

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

No hiccups or delays paying our employees in the US, once set-up. Incredibly transparent throughout the whole process & were reachable 24/7 - which was a massive help, considering our short deadlines/timeline for expansion.

The aspirock team (mike, dieta) were excellent. They responded quickly and efficiently. Made the process incredibly smooth.

What was your primary form of communication with Aspirock?

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Very personable. Platforms like deel are great but sometimes you just want to pick up the phone and talk the someone directly, who has authority, without needing to sit on a chatbot or trawling through help articles. We had direct lines of communication with Aspirock, and this stood out.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Aspirock could have done differently?

Aspirocks online portal for viewing status of onboarding could be a little more functional, compared to other providers we've used. But I value service over this and wasn't a deal breaker.

Our Story

Aspirock was founded by Mike Millsopp, who has 22 years in international EOR and global payroll. After exiting his previous global employment business in 2021, he built Aspirock with direct entities where local presence matters most - Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, Denmark, Spain, Netherlands, Ireland, and the US - and a vetted partner network covering 60+ further countries. The Riyadh office handles all KSA employment directly, with no sub-partner chain in the most regulated GCC market.

What Sets Us Apart

Direct-entity Saudi EOR with Platinum Nitaqat

Aspirock Arabia LLC holds its own Saudi commercial registration, labour licence, and Platinum Nitaqat band — the highest Saudisation compliance tier. Employment, visa sponsorship, and payroll run through our Riyadh office directly. No sub-partner chain.

22 years of EOR operator experience

Founded by Mike Millsopp after 22 years building EOR businesses across the GCC and globally. Account-managed delivery from senior operators who have run this model before, not a self-serve dashboard with a helpdesk.

Direct entities where it matters most

Owned entities in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, Denmark, Spain, Netherlands, Ireland, and the US — the markets where local presence and licence ownership are decisive. Partner-delivered coverage across 60+ further countries for global mandates.

Commonly Asked Questions

Aspirock supports a mix of recruitment agencies, end clients, and direct deployments across the GCC, EU, and US. Active engagement size ranges from single-employee deployments for scale-ups making their first GCC hire, through to 50-plus headcount mandates for engineering and energy clients on Vision 2030 projects.

Every client engagement starts with a deployment plan covering the target market, role profile, Saudisation and Localisation positioning (for KSA), and a clear timeline. Once signed, clients work directly with the operations team in the deployment country - Riyadh for KSA, Dubai for UAE, and so on. Account-managed throughout. No helpdesk tickets.

Deployment timeline against commitment, monthly payroll accuracy, compliance with local government platforms (Mudad, Qiwa, GOSI in KSA; WPS in UAE), and client retention. Most clients move from initial engagement into multi-year relationships as their GCC headcount grows or their entity registration progresses in parallel.

Directly. Aspirock Arabia LLC holds its own Saudi commercial registration (CR 7051425861), labour licence, and Platinum Nitaqat band. Visa sponsorship, Iqama processing, GOSI registration, Qiwa contract authentication, and Mudad/WPS payroll are all handled in-house from the Riyadh office. There is no sub-partner or third-party delivery agent in the employment chain.

Best-case timelines in Saudi Arabia are 4–6 weeks for a straightforward expatriate deployment. Typical deployments run 6–10 weeks. Complex cases involving professional certifications or specific nationalities can take 10–14 weeks. UAE timelines are typically 3–5 weeks for mainland deployment, depending on free zone vs mainland setup and nationality.
