What are the costs of nearshoring in Spain compared to offshore development in the rest of the world?
The following rates are indicative from various online surveys:
Latin America
25-45 €
per hour
Eastern Europe
22-45 €
per hour
Africa
17-35 €
per hour
Asia
15-35 €
per hour
As you can see from this list, the costs for nearshoring with us in Spain are comparable or more cost efficient than offshoring in other regions of the world. Contracting with us gains you value for money, together with the additional benefits of a location in close proximity to the Netherlands, facilitating a seamless integration into your company’s culture.
For comparison
- If, for instance, you succeed in hiring a mid-level (5 years of experience) Software Developer as an employee, in the Netherlands the monthly salary will be approximately €4,500. If the additional costs (employer premiums/taxes, lease car, recruitment, HR, administration, office, etc.) are added to this, the total costs for this mid level Software Developer quickly amount to approximately €8,000, or €46 per hour.
- Assuming you are unsuccessful in securing employment in the very tight labour market, you may consider hiring a mid-level candidate through a secondment agency. The rate for this approach is approximately €80 per hour.
- Additionally, the rates for Freelancers are at a similar level, or more significant, in the current market.
