Tools to make a clear decision.
Run the numbers, gauge whether you're ready, and scope your first role — all in a few clicks. Built for Australian and New Zealand business owners.
What does a local hire really cost?
Drag to your target salary. We'll add the on-costs every Australian employer carries — so you can see the fully-loaded figure, not just the headline number.
Veero replaces almost all of these on-costs with one fixed monthly fee — no super, leave, payroll tax, recruitment or office overhead on your side.

How many hours could you hand back?
Drag in the hours you or your team lose to recurring, low-judgement work each week. We'll show what that adds up to over a year — and what your own time is worth.
Nearly half a working week handed back to higher-value work.
Indicative only — based on the hours you enter and 46 working weeks a year. The point isn't the exact figure; it's whether the trade is worth a conversation.

Local hire, solo VA, or managed?
The three routes most ANZ owners weigh up — and where each one actually lands once the admin, cover and management load are counted.
| Local hire | Solo VA (self-managed) | Veero (managed) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you pay | Salary + on-costs | Hourly / monthly rate | One fixed monthly fee |
| Hidden on-costs | ~30% on top | Low, but variable | ✓ None — all-inclusive |
| Who manages performance | You | You | ✓ Veero |
| Cover for sick & leave | You scramble | ✕ None | ✓ Built in |
| Works your hours | ✓ Yes | Sometimes | ✓ Yes |
| Time to productive | 2–4 months | Days, then training | 4–6 weeks |
| If it's not a fit | Yours to solve | Yours to solve | ✓ We replace |
| Best for | On-site, in-person roles | Light, well-defined tasks | Ongoing roles you'd rather not manage |

The outsourcing words, decoded.
The industry loves a three-letter acronym. Here's what they actually mean — and how Veero's model differs.
- Managed outsourcing Veero's model
- A provider sources, employs and manages the professional for you. You direct the work; they handle hiring, performance, HR, payroll and cover — for one fixed fee.
- Virtual Assistant (VA)
- An individual contractor you find and manage yourself. Cheaper hourly, but the recruiting, training, performance and cover all stay on your plate.
- BPO Business Process Outsourcing
- Handing an entire function (e.g. a call centre) to a third party, usually at large scale. Built for volume, not for a single embedded role in a small team.
- EOR Employer of Record
- A company that legally employs staff on your behalf in another country. Solves compliance, but you still do the hiring, managing and day-to-day.
- On-costs
- Everything you pay on top of a salary: superannuation, leave, payroll tax, workers' comp, recruitment, equipment and office. Often ~30% of the headline figure.
- Offshore vs onshore
- Offshore means the professional is based overseas (lower cost); onshore means in your own country. Veero is offshore talent, managed to onshore standards.

Before you book a call.
Is my data safe with an outsourced professional?
Yes. Professionals work under binding confidentiality agreements, with role-based access, multi-factor logins and audited permissions. You grant only the access a task needs, and it's revoked the moment an engagement ends — the security checklist above walks through exactly what to set up.
How does the pricing actually work?
One fixed monthly fee per role, all-inclusive — there's no super, leave, payroll tax, recruitment or equipment cost on your side. Because it's fixed, it's predictable to budget for, unlike a salary that quietly grows with on-costs. We'll give you a tailored figure once we've scoped the role.
What stays my responsibility?
The judgement calls: final approvals, client advice, pricing, and anything requiring your licence or sign-off. The professional handles the recurring, documentable work around those decisions — the scoping template helps you draw that line clearly.
What if the person isn't the right fit?
Under a managed model that's our problem to solve, not yours. If a professional isn't working out, we manage the replacement — you're not left re-running a hiring process or carrying the cost.
Can I start with just one role?
Almost everyone does. Most engagements begin with a single role to prove the model in your business, then scale up or down as the work changes. There's no minimum team size.
How long until someone's productive?
Typically 4–6 weeks from scoping to a professional embedded in your systems — far faster than the 2–4 months a local permanent hire usually takes, and without the recruitment effort falling on you.
