Finding the right resource has never been more flexible

How much does it cost to hire a remote HR Director?

−
HR Director engagements through Kuubiik start from $3,120 per month on a fixed monthly fee. Pricing reflects the director's experience level, the size and complexity of the organisation they will be leading HR for, and the scope of strategic and operational responsibilities involved. Visit kuubiik.com to request a custom quote.

What does an outsourced HR Director handle?

+
A Kuubiik-assigned HR Director leads the human resources function at a strategic level - covering workforce planning, organisational design, people strategy, compensation and benefits frameworks, compliance oversight, performance management systems, and senior talent acquisition. They work directly with your leadership team to align HR strategy with business objectives. Kuubiik handles all contracts, compliance, and payments.

How long does it take to source an HR Director?

+
HR Director profiles are senior leadership roles, so sourcing typically takes 45 to 60 calendar days depending on the organisation's size, industry, and specific strategic requirements. Kuubiik presents up to three shortlisted profiles for client review and interviews before confirming.

Can a remote HR Director effectively lead a people function across multiple locations or markets?

+
Yes. Remote HR leadership is standard for distributed and internationally operating businesses. A Kuubiik-assigned HR Director is experienced in managing people functions across multiple time zones, jurisdictions, and cultural contexts - using tools like BambooHR, Workday, or equivalent HRIS platforms to maintain visibility and consistency across your organisation.

What if my HR Director is not the right strategic fit for our organisation?

+
Replacements are free and unlimited. During the first two months, you can request a replacement with one day's written notice at no additional cost. After that, replacements remain free with two weeks' written notice. Given the seniority of this role, Kuubiik takes particular care in aligning replacement profiles to your organisation's size, culture, growth stage, and leadership team dynamics.

What countries can I source a remote HR Director from?

+
Senior HR Director profiles are sourced from Southeast Asia and LATAM, with additional reach into other regions depending on the seniority and functional requirements. Southeast Asia has a strong pool of internationally experienced HR leaders, particularly for businesses operating across APAC markets. For specific regional experience or jurisdiction knowledge, those requirements can be flagged in your brief.

What does the monthly fee include when outsourcing an HR Director?

+
The monthly fee covers everything on the engagement management side - your HR Director's compensation, contract setup, compliance administration, and monthly payments. There are no recurring admin fees on top. The only upfront cost is a one-time deposit equivalent to one month's fee. HRIS platforms, payroll systems, and any HR software subscriptions are separate and remain under your control.

How is outsourcing an HR Director different from using an interim or executive search firm?

+
An outsourced HR Director through a Contractor of Record model gives you a committed, full-time leader at a fraction of the cost of an executive search placement or an interim from a consulting firm. There are no placement fees, no day-rate markups, and no minimum engagement caps. The fixed monthly rate makes budgeting predictable, and free replacements mean you are not locked in if the fit is not right.
