Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao. Strong economies, international business environments,
growing tourism industry and a structural talent shortage at all levels.
The local pool is very thin because the islands are small in population and many young adults stay in the countries where they studied, mostly the Netherlands, to build their careers.
This talent drain is hurting the islands and make it difficult to for business to continue to operate or grow.
And most international professionals don’t think of the islands as a career destination.
While many island businesses scream for talented professionals.
ABC Islands talent shortage
LATAM talent solutions
But Latin America, same time zone, short flight,
fast growing professional class,
full of exactly the people you need.
Professionals known for their amazing work & service mentality.
Why it works
They understand international business standards, communicate well across cultures, and for many of them, the prospect of working for an ABC Islands company, remotely or with relocation, is genuinely attractive.
We know this talent pool from the inside. We’ve placed engineers, developers, finance professionals, and hospitality managers from Colombia into island operations, some working fully remote, others relocated to the island.
Both models work when they’re set up correctly from the start.
For technical roles where physical presence isn’t required, software development, system administration, finance or data,
a remote LATAM-based team is often the most efficient and cost-effective solution.
We’ve built entire remote teams for clients in Curaçao who now operate seamlessly across borders.
For roles that require presence on the island, hospitality, operations, management, relocation from Colombia has been proven to work great!
We manage the full process: identification, cultural assessment, and relocation preparation, so your new hire arrives prepared & ready to contribute.
