Convenient and affordable recruitment, payroll and HR services for your small or medium-size business
The success of your business depends greatly on the people who work with you – but startups and small businesses often lack the resources to find, select, and retain the best employees. On top of this, as a foreign business owner, it can be difficult to understand the local process of recruiting, hiring and taking proper care of your staff, ensuring that you can get the best people possible for a motivating yet affordable salary, and that your operations are compliant with labor law and other regulations.
At Helpers, we specialize in finding cost-effective and professional solutions for foreign-owned small and medium-size businesses, ensuring seamless operation and minimizing business risk.
Cost-effective recruitment
Helpers offers highly competitive, flat rates for the recruitment and hire of new staff – for significantly less than most recruitment firms, we will advise you on formulating the position and setting the optimal salary, take care of advertising, screen and interview candidates, and include a professionally drafted labor contract in the package! If you are already our client, you will additionally benefit from working with an account manager who understands your personal and business goals, and can provide you with tailor-made advice and support.
Ongoing HR support and payroll administration
By using our complex business services, from registered office through accounting, business planning, recruitment and office search, you can ensure that your resources are optimized and there are no costly and inconvenient detours. Once you have hired your first staff member, we will take care of all ongoing administration and HR support, to make sure that your company is always fully compliant and an attractive workplace for talented candidates with great potential from day one.

What our clients say
-
I would like to thank Ekin and Anna who helped me from the beginning to the end from company incorporation, opening a company bank account and obtaining a residence/work permit. Their communication was very positive and constructive and always solution oriented. The Helpers are very professional and when I need an opinion or ask for an update, they are very quick to respond. I can recommend them to everyone.

Helpers was dedicated to facilitating my case. There were several instances where I thought I would not succeed and I simply would have been lost in the maze of bureaucracy without them. The initial application submission assistance is convenient and relatively easier than doing it yourself, but the real value in this service is having a third party closer to the inside that is more fluent in the language and can help eliminate the inevitable confusion and complication. Rest assured Helpers can simplify and illuminate the path to success for you.

What can I say? Helpers really lives up to its name! Helpers is a classy organization that helps people get their business licenses in a really stress-free laid back way. I was so pleased at how easy it was to work with them and negotiate my needs. As long as you make sure they have all the information and papers that are needed to get the job done, believe me, they GET THE JOB DONE!
I was helped out mostly by Tala, Norbert and Boti. They were all friendly professionals and genuinely kind people!
They respond to emails professionally and promptly. They help and communicate with you through every step of the process and even offer tea and coffee along the way! Really, I couldn’t stress more how convenient it is for someone who doesn’t speak the language to have this sort of help. I couldn’t recommend it more to anyone who needs it!!

My experience with Helpers team is excellent. During almost a year of cooperation we opened LLC company in Hungary, I received residence permit for 2 years. I have assistance in finance questions, accountancy, legal questions. All problems are solved in prompt and smart way. During this journey there were a lot of difficulties and complicated questions, plenty of request from authorities. But due to Helpers assistance actually I’m absolutely sure that any problem could be solved. They are like a part of my company. And I’m confident about this part.
I strongly recommend to establish your business in Hungary with Helpers. You will receive a pleasure from their problem-solving and communication skills. And your company will work properly for sure.
Also my special thanks to Tala Shalati, Anna Kőszegi, Norbert Tekler, Tímea Köbli and Tamara Szabó. I really appreciate that my acquaintance with Hungary began with you!

We have gone through a process of approximately one year. Naturally, during this period, there were many setbacks, problems, and events such as changes in laws. However, it was enjoyable to work with a results-oriented team that constantly took action to solve the newly arising issues. Especially with individuals like Dorka, Anna, Gergö, and Hilda, who help you take different and innovative steps to quickly resolve any problem. They are a team that knows their work, goes beyond the traditional European working style, and is always ready to support you. 🌸
From the company establishment process to post-establishment matters like residence permit applications, they provide significant support in many areas. I must emphasize that when something goes wrong, instead of saying, “This is your problem,” they adopt the mindset of, “Hmm, let’s see how we can find alternative ways to solve this.” Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for everyone in the Finance department, but overall, looking at the Helpers team, I can confidently say you will be working with a positive and professional group. 👌
Most of the team has been with Helpers for many years, so they are highly experienced and knowledgeable about almost everything. Compared to other companies that provide company setup services, they may be slightly more expensive. However, their quality makes this difference seem entirely normal and justified. After working with them, you realize how this small difference in cost positively impacts you.
We sincerely thank the entire team. They are a team I would love to work with again in the future, and I will always keep their contact information saved in my phone. 🤞
Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ
How long does it normally take to find an employee in Hungary?
The answer greatly depends on the type of position you are looking to fill. For example, we have been known to find an English-speaking personal assistant or company administrator in just a day or two. Through our extensive network, we are often able to locate a suitable employee in a very short period of time. However, if you are looking for someone more specialized or the required expertise is in high demand on the market, lead times can be significantly longer – in such situations, we are often able to find you a temporary solution while we search.
I am not planning to live in Hungary full-time. How will I be able to supervise the work of my assistant?
This is a typical problem faced by our clients. Do not worry, however, we have a range of solutions for you. First of all, we can choose an office solution for you where your employee will have support and infrastructure when starting to work for you. Secondly, we often provide regular supervision by our own staff (or by our management if necessary) to ensure that your team, however small, will perform at top capacity and meet your expectations.
Can you assist with the legalities of hiring staff in Hungary?
Naturally, we will be with you from wording your job post to negotiating, drafting and signing the labor contract. We will also brief you on the basics of Hungarian labor law, so you know what your rights and obligations are. If your accounting is also done by Helpers, our bookkeepers will also prepare payroll every month, and calculate all wage and tax cost for you before you make the hire, to avoid any surprises.
