Nearshore staffing for Iowa companies

Nearshore staffing in Iowa

We help companies in Des Moines hire vetted, English-speaking professionals from Latin America. Des Moines runs on Central Time, so a 9 to 5 day there shares 5 to 8 working hours with the region's main talent hubs, most of all with Mexico City.

Hiring in Des Moines

  • Des Moines, IA

    Time zone: Central Time

    Insurance and financial services anchor the Des Moines economy, with agriculture and agricultural technology close behind. State government, publishing and a growing tech scene add to the mix.

    That concentration means a lot of companies are hiring for the same roles: claims, underwriting support, policy service, accounting and analytics. When a team falls behind on its queue, a nearshore hire with the right background can step in without a drawn-out local search.

    Close on the clock

    Mexico and Central America match Des Moines in winter and are one hour behind in summer. Colombia and Peru are one hour ahead in winter and on the same time in summer. Every candidate commits to your business hours.

Questions from Iowa companies

Can nearshore staff support claims and underwriting teams?

Yes. Claims intake, file review support, policy changes and premium processing are common remote roles. We screen for accuracy and written English, and you train them on your guidelines.

Is there any obligation before we find someone?

No obligation until we match you with the perfect candidate and you hire them.

Will they work Central Time?

Yes. Candidates agree to your hours before you interview them.

Which role should we start with?

Usually the one with the longest backlog. On a strategy call we'll help you choose where a nearshore hire will help most.
