THE GROWTH BOTTLENECK

Your business is growing.
Your workload shouldn't grow with it.

As your business grows, so does the work behind it. Admin piles up, growth gets pushed aside, and finding reliable support becomes another job in itself.

01 / ADMIN

Buried in the busywork

Inboxes, scheduling and everyday tasks consume your time.

02 / GROWTH

No time to move forward

Strategy, sales and new opportunities keep getting delayed.

03 / SUPPORT

Help is hard to get right

Recruitment takes time, and unreliable support creates more work.

A BETTER WAY FORWARD

You don't have to do everything yourself.

Global Teams is a managed service, not just another source of labour. We define the role, find and test the right person, onboard them, and stay close as your business grows, so you get the support without the burden.

You don't need a job title to get started. Tell us what's taking your time and we'll work out the role.

How it works

We do the hiring and the hand-holding.
You get someone ready to work.

A managed process, not a handover. We stay involved at every stage — from understanding the pressure in your business to supporting the working relationship long after someone starts.

01

Understand

We get to know your business, your pressure points and your goals.

02

Design

We shape a clear role, with the right skills, responsibilities and hours.

03

Recruit

We source, vet and test, so you only meet people worth meeting.

04

Onboard

We help them settle in, learn your tools and fit the way you work.

05

Grow

We stay close with people support and performance reviews, so you're never managing alone.

What you can expect at every step

How long recruitment takes

Typically 2 to 3 weeks from approved role brief to your interview shortlist.

Candidate assessment

Rigorous English proficiency, role-specific practical tasks, background & reference checks.

How we shortlist

You only meet 2 to 3 top candidates who match your exact working hours, software and culture.

Performance & fit checks

Global Teams manages reviews, check-ins, and performance concerns so you never manage alone.

Onboarding, security & systems

We set up 2FA password managers, secure remote access, NDA agreements and tool training before day one.

Built from experience. Global Teams grew out of the businesses Smail Group built and ran with global teams. We've made the mistakes, learned the lessons, and built the process we wish we'd had.

HOW GLOBAL TEAMS HELPS

Built around your business,
not a job title.

We help UK businesses add dedicated, managed professionals without the cost and complexity of building a team in-house. Here's what that looks like in practice.

01

Your time back

Hand over the admin, inbox and day-to-day so you can focus on the work only you can do.

02

The right person, matched

We define the role around your business, then source and assess candidates against it — not a database.

03

Managed, not outsourced

Recruitment, onboarding and ongoing support are included. Your professional works as part of your team.

04

Flexible capacity

Start with 5 hours a week or go full-time. Scale up as your business grows, with clear monthly pricing.

Your team

Three levels,
matched to the work.

Global Teams professional (a "GT") is matched to one of three levels, so the experience always fits the work. Need fewer hours? GT Flex gives you a dedicated professional for 5, 10 or 20 hours a week.
