Headquartered in London, U.K., Acumen International is a global employer of record (EOR) and professional employer organization (PEO) service, provider.

In 2011, Acumen International entered the global employer of record services market to support mid-sized and enterprise companies with compliant international expansion services.

Since 2019, Acumen International has experienced a ~43% increase in active workers.
