Tana

Africa is poised to become the workforce of the future, with the youngest and fastest-growing talent pool in the world. With an aging workforce and a growing tech skills gap in North America and Europe, companies are looking beyond traditional offshore markets like India and Eastern Europe, which have become saturated and expensive. That’s where Tana comes in. We connect global companies with top-tier African talent—fluent in English, time-zone aligned, and far more cost-effective than other markets. And we don’t just find talent—we handle everything from recruitment and training to payroll, compliance, and ongoing support, making it effortless to scale your team with highly skilled and cost-effective talent.

What Tana offers its clients

Tana offers companies a seamless way to build high-performing global teams by providing access to top-tier African talent in data, tech, and product roles. Unlike traditional outsourcing, our model is built around full-time, fully integrated team members who work directly within your organization, rather than short-term contractors. Our talent is fluent in English, time-zone aligned, and significantly more cost-effective than any other market. Best of all, we take care of everything—recruitment, training, payroll, compliance, and ongoing support—so you can scale your team effortlessly without the administrative hassle.

How Tana outshines the competition

Tana stands out by offering more than just outsourcing—we provide fully integrated, long-term team members who become an extension of your company.

Our talent is fluent in English, time-zone aligned with North America and Europe, and significantly more cost-effective than hiring in other global markets. Companies working with us save up to 70% compared to hiring in North America, 2.5X compared to Eastern Europe, and 1.5X compared to Latin America and Asia.

We also have a rigorous vetting and training process to ensure the right technical and cultural fit, leading to higher retention rates—3X better than many offshore markets.

Beyond hiring, we handle payroll, compliance, benefits, and ongoing coaching, so companies don’t just get great talent—they get a seamless, low-maintenance solution for scaling their teams. Our hands-on support ensures that businesses not only fill positions but build high-performing, committed teams that grow with them.
