Jens Erik Gould Unveils Amalga Group’s New Talent Compensation Guides

Amalga Group, led by CEO Jens Erik Gould, has launched a series of Nearshore Salary Guides to help businesses optimize staffing strategies, reduce costs, and enhance operational efficiency across key industries.

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amalga Group is excited to announce the release of its latest Nearshore Salary Guides and Talent Compensation Comparison Guides. Developed under the leadership of Amalga Group CEO and Founder Jens Erik Gould, these guides are tailored to support businesses in effectively managing their staffing strategies. The guides provide valuable insights for companies looking to strike a balance between cost efficiency and operational excellence in their workforce planning.

The guides, which include the Legal Services Salary & Hiring Guide for LatAm, US; the Accounting & Finance Salary & Hiring Guide for LatAm, US; the Contact Center Salary & Hiring Guide for LatAm, US; and the Nearshore Salary & Hiring Guide for Software & Technology Jobs – LatAm, US, offer sector-specific information that will help organizations navigate an increasingly complex hiring landscape. They focus on key comparisons between nearshore and onshore staffing, making them essential resources for HR teams and business leaders alike.

“These guides represent Amalga Group’s commitment to helping businesses make informed decisions in today’s fast-changing labor market,” said Jens Erik Gould. “Each guide addresses the specific needs of different industries, offering strategies to maximize value without compromising quality or efficiency.”

One of the central themes of Amalga Group’s new guides is the advantage of nearshore staffing for U.S.-based companies. Nearshore staffing, which involves sourcing talent from neighboring regions such as Latin America, allows businesses to benefit from significant cost savings, improved cultural alignment, and the fluidity of working in similar time zones. The guides show how this approach can reduce total compensation costs for many roles by as much as 60% compared to U.S. hiring.

“Companies today are under immense pressure to reduce costs while maintaining high standards,” said Jens Erik Gould. “These guides demonstrate how nearshore staffing can be a game-changer, particularly in fields like legal services, accounting, customer support, and technology. The data and insights we’ve provided will give businesses the clarity they need to adapt and thrive.”

Beyond cost savings, Amalga Group’s Talent Compensation Comparison Guides highlight the operational benefits of nearshore staffing, including improved scalability and compliance with Western regulations. By outlining compensation trends and hiring strategies, the guides empower businesses to align their workforce needs with broader goals such as scaling operations and enhancing team efficiency.

The Talent Compensation Comparison Guides are now available on Amalga Group’s website. Businesses can also schedule consultations with Amalga Group’s specialists for personalized advice on implementing nearshore solutions tailored to their industry needs.
