If you are considering working with a consultant under a payroll-based model but are still unsure how it works in practice, you are not alone. Many international companies face the same questions at the start. Freeteam has the experience and operational know-how to help you move forward with confidence.

Although Employer of Record is a well-established model that has supported thousands of national and international companies while providing employment stability in France, it is still not always well understood. If you are hiring from abroad, it is natural to have questions about French employment rules and compliance.

The Employer of Record (EOR) model follows a simple and transparent structure, built around three contractual relationships:

One agreement between the client company and the consultant, defining the mission and deliverables

One agreement between Freeteam and the client company, covering the commercial and administrative framework

One employment relationship between Freeteam and the consultant

How to find your consultant

Through our partnership model, you can share your project directly with Freeteam consultants and a large network of qualified freelancers.

Posting a project is straightforward and can be done in three simple steps:

  • Create your free account and start publishing
  • Post your offers with no limit on volume and no publication fees
  • Increase your visibility among experienced consultants

Looking for a skilled consultant?

One of the key advantages of working with Freeteam is access to a strong and diverse network of consultants, across industries and seniority levels.

Our headquarters are based in Paris, with a presence in major business hubs. This allows us to stay close to experienced professionals: senior executives, researchers, independent experts, future entrepreneurs testing the market, and seasoned freelancers. Many come to Freeteam looking for structure and guidance, and we support them as they develop sustainable professional projects.

This does not limit us to France only. Our international reach and experience with overseas clients also allow us to work with consultants based abroad, delivering services to international companies wherever the project requires.

For example, a French environmental specialist may contribute to a year-long project in Madagascar. The consultant focuses fully on the assignment, while Freeteam manages all local administrative and compliance requirements. This allows you to access top expertise without operational friction.

Each consultant represents a potential long-term collaboration. Freeteam acts as a national and international partner, helping you connect with qualified experts in a structured and reliable way.

  • Simplicity: Freeteam manages administrative and compliance tasks, reducing workload for both your teams and the consultant.
  • Reliability: a structured operational framework that secures the relationship and execution of each mission.
