UK profile
Workwell Global is the international employment brand of the Workwell group, a Watford-headquartered workforce management business. The group's lead company was incorporated on 24 July 1989 as John Stephen Accountancy Services Limited, became JSA Services Limited and was renamed Workwell People Solutions Limited in September 2024. Its own timeline records the move into UK umbrella and limited-company services in 2007, FCSA accreditation in 2011, John Hoskin becoming CEO in 2017 and backing from Universal Partners in 2018. Since then the group has grown by acquisition: PGC Group (US and Canada) in April 2024, Eastridge Workforce Management in 2025 (its 18th acquisition) and Australia's Oncore in 2025.
Workwell Global offers EOR in 150+ countries, contractor management and immigration support. It is aimed mainly at UK recruitment agencies placing contractors abroad and is an APSCo partner. Its 2023 modern slavery statement says delivery runs through a network of partner companies (accountants, lawyers, tax advisers) as well as its own staff in the UK, EU and US. A company named Workwell Global Limited (16664010) was incorporated in August 2025, but it is registered as a holding company. In the UK, workers are engaged through the group's umbrella and EOR business, Workwell Contractor Solutions. Copyright notices name Workwell People Solutions Limited (02407547), which is listed as an A-rated Skilled Worker sponsor.
EOR pricing is by quote, and the directory found no price list. The UK-facing proposition is contingent-worker EOR and umbrella employment rather than permanent hires for overseas companies, and the Global site has no UK country page. Trustpilot rates Workwell Contractor Solutions 4.8/5 from 1,767 reviews, mainly from umbrella workers. No G2 or Capterra rating for the EOR service was found.

Spain profile
Workwell Global is the international employer-of-record and contractor business of the UK Workwell group. The group parent is Workwell People Solutions Limited (company 02407547, Watford), incorporated on 24 July 1989 as John Stephen Accountancy Services Limited and named JSA Services Limited from 1997 to 2024. Its board includes CEO John Hoskin and investor Universal Partners. Workwell Global combines the acquired 6CATS (2022), WhiteFin (2023) and PGC Group (2024) businesses. It is led by Managing Director Amy Davies, and Marc Gómez, WhiteFin's founder, runs international operations from Barcelona. The site claims 150+ countries; a 2024 press release said 80+.
Workwell Global does not name its Spanish employing entity. The Barcelona register shows WhiteFin Contracting Solutions SL (NIF B67603928, Av. Diagonal 472). It was incorporated in 2020 with share capital of EUR 103,000, and JSA Services Limited has been its sole shareholder since January 2023. Its joint directors are Marc Gómez Cruz, Alexander David Thomas, John Hugo Hoskin and Kwasi Martin Missah. Its subsidiary Chromafin Contracting Solutions ETT SL (NIF B56759186) was incorporated in December 2023 with the business purpose of a temporary-work agency. That these companies employ Workwell Global's Spanish workers is the directory's inference. The ETT authorisation could not be checked in the Ministry of Labour register, so both points are unverified.
The Spain page covers payroll, employment tax, benefits including private medical cover, insurance, compliance and onboarding, plus contractor engagement. Spain is listed among the countries with a fast-track visa service. Pricing is on request. No G2, Capterra or Trustpilot listing for Workwell Global was found; it was named a Leader in Everest Group's 2026 Contractor of Record and Contingent EOR assessment.

| ETT authorisation | Chromafin Contracting Solutions ETT SL is registered with the exclusive business purpose of a temporary-work agency (CNAE 7820).

Service hubs are listed in Austin, New York, Barcelona, London, Brazil and Colombia. The website footer reads 'Workwell, Inc.' |
| Contracts | The Spain page says employees are engaged under the Estatuto de los Trabajadores and applicable collective agreements. It also says businesses can hire 'on a short-term or project basis', but it does not describe contract types, notice periods or termination support in detail. |
| Payroll and benefits | Payroll, employment tax, employee benefits including supplementary private medical cover, 'comprehensive insurances', employment compliance and onboarding are listed as included, with 'no hidden fees' (provider wording).

Services in Spain
| Employer of Record in Spain | Employs workers in Spain on the client's behalf under the Estatuto de los Trabajadores and collective agreements, covering payroll, employment tax, benefits, insurance, compliance and onboarding without a local entity. The Spanish employing company is not named; register data points to the group's Barcelona subsidiary WhiteFin Contracting Solutions SL and its ETT subsidiary, which is unconfirmed. Clients get a dedicated account manager rather than a self-serve model. |
| Contingent EOR and contractor engagement | A Spain page section on placing contractors and a contractor-management service let recruitment agencies and companies engage independent contractors abroad. Everest Group named Workwell a Leader in its Contractor of Record and Contingent Employer of Record PEAK Matrix 2026 and cited its worker-classification expertise, in-house legal team, contractual responsibility and indemnification. |
| Services for staffing and recruitment firms | A large part of the business serves recruitment agencies placing workers across borders, with onboarding, payroll and compliance for contractors and temporary staff. This draws on the 6CATS, WhiteFin and PGC businesses the group acquired. |
| Immigration and visas | Work-permit support in 30+ countries through local group entities. Spain is listed with a fast-track visa service, though visa routes, timelines and fees are not published. |

| Expansion advice | One-to-one consultations with expansion specialists, an EOR guide, and market-entry programmes such as a LATAM programme starting 3 November 2026. |
Strengths and watch-outs in Spain
- ✓ Backed by an established UK group: Workwell People Solutions Limited dates from 1989 (formerly JSA Services Limited), has institutional investor Universal Partners on its board, and was named a Leader in Everest Group's 2026 Contractor of Record and Contingent EOR assessment.
- ✓ It has a real operational presence in Spain. Barcelona is one of its service hubs, and both its international operations director and head of international operations work there.
- ✓ Register checks show group-owned Spanish companies, WhiteFin Contracting Solutions SL (capital EUR 103,000, group-owned since 2023) and an ETT-purpose subsidiary. That points to an in-house Spanish structure rather than a third-party partner, though the link has not been confirmed.
- ✓ Strong in contractor and contingent-worker engagement for recruitment agencies, with in-house legal expertise and contractual indemnification cited by Everest Group.
- ✓ Offers a fast-track visa service for Spain, and clients get a dedicated account manager, which People Managing People highlights as a strength.
- ✗ Workwell Global does not name its Spanish employing entity or publish an ETT authorisation. The WhiteFin and Chromafin link is inferred from the register, and the Chromafin licence could not be verified in the Ministry register.
- ✗ Pricing is not published for Spain or globally. Fees, setup costs and deposits are available only on request.
- ✗ The Spain page is generic: it has little detail on contract types, termination, Social Security rates or onboarding timelines.
- ✗ Few independent reviews: no G2, Capterra or Trustpilot profile for Workwell Global was found. Ratings shown under the 'Workwell' name belong to other companies or sister UK brands.
- ✗ Coverage claims are inconsistent (150+ countries on the site against 80+ in a 2024 press release). The integrations and self-service tools are described as limited.
Reviews
- G2: no Workwell Global profile identified: Not published. The G2 'Workwell' seller page (4.5/5 from 88 reviews, read 26 October 2026) belongs to Workwell Technologies of Carlsbad, California (uAttend time-tracking) and is not related.
- Trustpilot and Capterra: no Workwell Global listing identified. Trustpilot pages exist for sister UK brands such as Workwell Contractor Solutions and Workwell Accountancy, but these cover UK umbrella and accountancy services, not EOR, and are not attributed here: Not published.
- People Managing People (editorial review, updated 29 August 2026) gives no star rating. It lists dedicated account managers, local compliance expertise and fast onboarding as pros, and fewer self-service features, limited niche coverage and no public pricing as cons. Its company-history section (New York, 2010) conflicts with register data.
- Industry recognition: named a Leader in Everest Group's Contractor of Record and Contingent Employer of Record Solutions PEAK Matrix Assessment 2026 (announced 8 October 2026). Site testimonials from Yellow Cat Recruitment, La Fosse Associates and DataCite are provider-selected, and none relates to Spain.
