What Australia employers hire most
These three functions account for most of what we build in India for Australia companies. The team is employed inside your own structure and stays in India.
Technology & Software Recruitment
The most established India based function for US and Australian employers, whether that is a handful of embedded engineers or a full capability centre. Leadership is sequenced ahead of the team beneath it.
- Engineering
- Platform & Cloud
AI & Machine Learning Recruitment
India has applied AI depth at scale rather than in pockets. The first two or three hires set the technical standard for everyone after them, so they get search discipline, not a volume process.
- Applied AI & ML
- Data Science & Analytics
Marketing & Growth Recruitment
Performance marketing, content, SEO and marketing operations are among the most commonly built India based functions. Execution work travels well across a timezone gap; strategy roles need more overlap than most plans allow for.
- Performance & Growth
- Brand & Category
NM and Australia
Australian companies build teams in India for accounting, software development, digital marketing, design and customer support. Published comparisons put fully loaded India cost at roughly 30 to 40 percent of the Australian equivalent, though the number varies widely by role and seniority.
Cost is the reason people start. It is almost never the reason the arrangement succeeds or fails. What decides that is whether the first few hires are strong enough to set the standard, and whether the roles were scoped for someone working 4.5 to 5.5 hours behind Sydney.
We recruit those people in India, on your behalf, into your structure. We do not operate an offshore delivery centre and we do not employ your team for you.
Why hire through India
The first hires set the ceiling
An offshore team rarely outperforms its first two or three members. Those hires deserve search discipline, not a volume process.
Timezone overlap is a design decision
India is 4.5 to 5.5 hours behind Australian eastern time depending on daylight saving. That gives a workable morning overlap, but only if roles are scoped for it.
Accounting and engineering depth
India qualifies roughly 40,000 chartered accountants a year and is the largest software services market in the world. Both map directly onto common Australian offshore functions.
You employ them, we find them
We recruit into your entity, your EOR or your GCC. We are not an outsourcing provider and do not sit between you and your team.

How we hire for Australia
Hiring for Australia, frequently asked
No. NM operates from India. We recruit India based staff for Australian companies. If you need people employed in Australia, we are not the right partner and will tell you so.
Published comparisons put fully loaded India cost at roughly 30 to 40 percent of the Australian equivalent, but that varies widely by role, seniority and city. We benchmark the specific roles you are hiring rather than quoting a blanket percentage.
You do, through your own Indian entity or an employer of record. Alternatively NM can act as employer of record through our contract staffing service, carrying payroll and statutory compliance while you direct the work.
First shortlists within a week of a calibrated brief. Indian notice periods of 30 to 90 days then dominate the timeline, so a five person team typically lands over two to four months.
