London-based Borderless raises €3 million to help solve the UK’s care worker shortage

Summary

Borderless’ software allows care providers to automate the hiring and onboarding of international workers, including recruitment, immigration, relocation and compliance, in one platform, removing the need for intermediary organisations that sometimes have contributed to the industry’s human trafficking and modern slavery issues. This allows better certainty for economic migrants, removing the opportunity for bad actors to get involved, and achieves cost savings 4x cheaper than current alternatives, minimising visa rejections and accelerating hiring timelines for care providers. The company is also able to ensure a much higher quality of candidates as a direct result of the increased transparency the platform brings to care homes. We immediately saw the benefit their technology brings to both candidates looking for better pathways, and care homes searching for the best talent capable of looking after the nation’s elderly,” commented Alex Brunicki, General Partner at BACKED VC. Currently focused on delivering their product to care providers with up to 500 employees, Borderless is already eyeing a future where they are working with the majority of the UK healthcare sector, and also helping alleviate staff shortages within the NHS itself.
