When your client is ready to build in the Philippines, CORE® is the partner you call to execute the offshore strategy. We are the operating partner, legal employer, talent infrastructure, and compliance architect. One invoice. No Philippine entity required.
Request a 30-minute briefingCORE® starts with implementation. We execute what you recommend. Strategic advisory, business cases, and vendor benchmarking remain your firm's domain. That clarity is explicit, contractual, and non-negotiable.
Approving the strategy is the easy part. But when there is no operating infrastructure to execute it in the Philippines, these gaps appear in almost every engagement, regardless of client size or sector.
Without an employer of record, setup takes at least 3 to 6 months, and your client assumes all legal obligations: DOLE compliance, termination liability, and statutory benefits administration.
Specialized positions like clinical data managers, CRAs, and revenue cycle analysts require vertical-specific pipelines that many Philippines offshore operators are not equipped to staff.
The offshore implementation partner you refer carries your name into the engagement. Choosing the right partner is not just an operational decision; it is a reputational one.
CORE® sources specialized roles that general offshore operators struggle to fill. If your client is a health system, CRO, biotech, or payer, these are the roles we place.
| Role category | Sector | Typical placement |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Data Manager | Clinical Research | 28 to 35 days |
| Clinical Research Associate (CRA) | Clinical Research | 30 to 40 days |
| Regulatory Affairs Specialist | CRO / Biotech | 32 to 45 days |
| Medical Coder (CPC/CCS) | Health System | 14 to 21 days |
| Revenue Cycle Analyst | Health System | 14 to 28 days |
| Health Information Specialist | Payer / Provider | 21 to 30 days |
| Data Integrity / QC Analyst | Clinical Research | 25 to 35 days |
| Clinical Operations Support | Health System | 21 to 35 days |
Every engagement includes the full operating stack. CORE® handles everything required to employ, equip, and retain the team under Philippine law.
Advisory firms are not designed to carry implementation risk. Every item below is a risk that sits with your client if CORE®, the Philippines EOR partner for advisory firms, is not in place, and with CORE® once we are.
No advisory overlap. No benchmarking. No vendor selection. The scope boundary between CORE® and your firm is written into every non-compete partner agreement we sign.
Contractually bounded. Available on request.Once CORE® is engaged, they assume no Philippine employment liability. Every employment obligation transfers. They direct the work. We carry the rest.
Defined in EOR Services Agreement per engagement.One invoice. Zero payroll exposure. No statutory liability. CORE® owns payroll and remittance accuracy end-to-end, and any penalties fall solely on us.
Covered in MSA indemnification provisions.We do not just source. We stand behind what we place. Any candidate who does not perform within 90 days is replaced at no additional cost.
Written into standard engagement terms.CORE® maintains protocols for power, connectivity, equipment, and workforce events specific to Metro Manila operations.
BCP documentation available under NDA on request.Attrition is the most common cause of offshore team instability. The workplace certifications and rankings CORE® holds reflect an environment where people choose to stay.
Backed by independent validation, 2024 to 2026.Every successful partnership runs on clarity. The division between your advisory and our execution is defined, agreed, and in writing.

We have delivered for large, regulated-sector clients. The team, infrastructure, and processes are ready.

The best time to brief CORE®, your Philippines EOR partner for advisory firms, is before your client needs us. Do not wait until implementation is underway. A quick 30-minute briefing gives your team everything needed to evaluate the program and refer with confidence.
No. Our partner agreement explicitly prohibits CORE® from offering advisory, benchmarking, or vendor selection services to referred clients. The scope boundary is contractual, not verbal.
CORE® participates in standard procurement and RFP processes. We are not asking your firm to bypass your client's sourcing governance. A warm introduction positions us favorably within that process.
If your firm's ethics policy or your client's procurement requirements mandate disclosure, CORE® has no objection. We operate transparently. The commission structure can be disclosed without altering the engagement mechanics.
CORE® has executed engagements for enterprise health systems, CROs, and technology firms. We are not a boutique staffing shop. Our delivery team includes a President, Head of Operations, in-house counsel, and dedicated talent acquisition. Reference documentation available under NDA.
