Our take

Australian-founded Employment Hero is a provider of HR management software globally, aiming to compete in the $9B core HR software market. Its solutions streamline HR processes, including employee onboarding, payroll, time and attendance tracking, and performance management.

The company has somewhat become a strong industry player, with over 1M users on its system with over 300,000 businesses. By focusing on small and medium-sized businesses, Employment Hero has had brilliant success with its product that eases the burden of being an employer. The company claims to reduce the time spent on HR admin by around 80%, a significant saving for businesses of this size.

The market may be competitive, but Employment Hero isn't hitting the brakes. In fact, it's accelerating its growth with the recent acquisition of Humi, Canada's most trusted employment platform. This strategic move bolsters Employment Hero's foothold in Canada, making its presence even stronger.
