What administrative staffing takes off your plate

Corrective actions Closed with evidence, not just marked done
Document revisions Right version in the right hands
Audit findings Fewer, because the record was already complete
Inspection plans Followed and recorded every run
Supplier audits Scheduled and completed, not deferred
Transparent pricing

Two ways to hire. Transparent pricing.

Every quality and compliance role prices the same way. Both models carry the same bar: vetted candidates in 10 calendar days and 5-Stage Vetting. The guarantee differs by model: 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire, 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed.

When to hire

When audit preparation is a scramble

Most teams wait too long. These are the points where the seat pays for itself immediately.

Corrective actions unevidenced Actions get marked closed with nothing attached.
Wrong revision in use The floor builds from a superseded document.
Audit preparation is a scramble The file gets assembled the week before.
Supplier audits deferred The schedule slips every year and nobody notices.
Do any of these sound familiar?
  • Corrective actions close without evidence.
  • The floor builds from the wrong revision.
  • Audit files get assembled the week before.
  • Supplier audits slip every single year.
  • Findings are paperwork, not product.
  • Document control is nobody's actual job.

Model fit

Where your quality staff work best

Hire in the US when
  • Physical inspection cannot be done remotely
  • Supplier audits happen at their plant
  • Regulatory sign off carries a signing duty
Hire globally when
  • Document control is system work
  • Corrective action records are documentation
  • Audit preparation is file assembly

Both models carry the same vetting bar and the same guarantee. Pricing for each is above.

Role / responsibility Global US direct hire Why
Document revision control Global System work, staffs globally
Corrective action records Global Documentation with no location benefit
Audit file preparation Global File assembly, runs from anywhere
Standards administration Global Process work, staffs globally
Physical product inspection US direct hire Cannot be done remotely
Onsite supplier audits US direct hire Conducted at their plant
Nonconformance logging Global System work, staffs globally
Training record maintenance Global Administrative, runs from anywhere

One partner, onshore and global

A US office manager working alongside two fully managed global assistants is a Tuesday, not an exception. You pick the model per desk and we run both under one partner.

FAQ

Administrative Support staffing, answered

Who hires quality and compliance staff through HireHawk?

Manufacturers and distributors working to a standard, usually after an audit finding that turned out to be a paperwork problem rather than a product problem. Both hiring models carry a guarantee: 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed, 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire.

Which quality seat should we hire first?

Usually the Document Control Specialist, because most audit findings are document problems rather than product problems. Manufacturers with supplier quality issues should start with the Supplier Quality Auditor instead. We will ask what your last audit finding was before recommending an order.

Can quality and compliance work be staffed globally?

The documentation half can. Document control, corrective action records, audit preparation and supplier audit coordination are structured work that staffs globally from our six core talent markets. Physical inspection stays onsite as a US direct hire on your payroll, because you cannot inspect a part remotely.

How quickly can we get ready for an audit?

Shortlist in 10 calendar days from the discovery call, onboarding in 21 days. If the audit is sooner than that, say so on the call and we will tell you honestly whether a new hire helps or whether you need a different answer this time. We will not take a search we cannot deliver against your date.

Can we add quality support for a certification push?

Yes. Fully managed global seats run month to month, so document control and audit preparation capacity can be added for a certification and released after, with no severance exposure. US direct hires stay permanent employees on your payroll. Ongoing document control is usually worth keeping permanent.

What does a document controller cost?

Global Fully Managed from $12/hr all-inclusive, month to month, for document control and audit preparation. Physical inspection stays onsite. US Direct Hire is $995 plus 12.5% of first-year salary, or 15% with nothing upfront, against the 20-30% agencies charge. Set either against the cost of a finding you have to remediate.

Can a remote seat prepare us for an audit?

For the paperwork half, which is where most findings come from. Corrective actions closed without evidence and documents at the wrong revision are findings regardless of product quality. What a remote seat cannot do is inspect a part, so physical inspection stays with your onsite team.

Do they need experience in our standard?

It helps and we screen for it, but the more predictive signal is whether someone treats evidence as the deliverable. Standards differ; the discipline of closing an action with proof attached transfers between them. We will tell you honestly if your standard is niche enough to narrow the pool.
