Operator-Founded. Mexico-Specialized.

Staff Latin was built by someone who runs cross-border teams every day — not by recruiters who read a blog about nearshoring.

Scott Hannum, Founder of Staff Latin

I've spent my career building and operating businesses that depend on cross-border teams. I'm the founder of CallCentered, a U.S.-based BPO, and I run day-to-day operations with bilingual teams in Mexico. I know what compliant hiring in Mexico actually requires — IMSS, aguinaldo, PTU, Federal Labor Law contracts — because I manage it firsthand, not through a vendor.

That's why I started Staff Latin. Every screening process, every compliance workflow, and every onboarding step was built from years of actually running teams across the border. When I tell you we handle compliance, it's because I've handled it myself.

Why Staff Latin Exists


U.S. companies need affordable, reliable, bilingual talent — but hiring compliantly in Mexico is complicated. Mexican labor law requires specific benefits (aguinaldo, PTU, IMSS), employment contracts, and local payroll infrastructure. Most small and mid-size companies don't have the expertise or entity to do this. Staff Latin bridges that gap.

Why Mexico specifically: the largest bilingual workforce in Latin America (15.6M+ English speakers), USMCA trade alignment, same time zones as the U.S., cultural proximity, and short flights from most major U.S. cities. This isn't generic offshoring — it's a strategic nearshore partnership.
