From EU freedom of movement to top-tier technical education and unmatched cost-efficiency — Bulgaria is the hidden gem of European workforce sourcing.
Bulgarian workers are full EU citizens with unrestricted freedom of movement. No work permits, no visa processes — they can be seconded or directly hired across the EU immediately, with the same legal framework as any Western European national.
Bulgaria consistently ranks as one of the most cost-competitive EU labour markets. Hourly labour costs are 40–55% below Western European averages, delivering significant savings on secondment and direct hire — while fully respecting host-country wage rules.
Bulgaria has a deep polytechnic tradition with strong universities in Sofia, Plovdiv, and Varna. The country produces thousands of engineering, IT, and technical graduates annually — many of whom are multilingual (English, German, Russian).
Under Directive 96/71/EC and the 2018 revision, Bulgarian workers can be legally seconded across the EU with host-country wages applied. Intermann's Roussé office manages all compliance: A1 certificates, secondment declarations, and payroll documentation.
Bulgarian professionals are widely recognised for their adaptability, strong work ethic, and multilingual capabilities — English, German, and Russian being the most common. Cultural integration in Western European companies is consistently smooth.
With our dedicated office in Roussé — Bulgaria's second largest city and an economic hub — we source and screen Bulgarian candidates locally, maintaining a live database of pre-vetted profiles ready for deployment within 3 weeks.
From skilled tradespeople to senior engineers and IT specialists — our Roussé team sources the full spectrum of Bulgarian professional profiles.
As a full EU member state since 2007, Bulgaria is entirely integrated into the European posted workers framework. Under the Posted Workers Directive (96/71/EC) and its 2018 enforcement revision, Bulgarian workers can be legally seconded anywhere in the EU — with full social insurance coverage, host-country wage compliance, and complete administrative documentation.
Intermann's Roussé office — located at Oborishté n°9 — handles the entire compliance pipeline for every country we operate in, from A1 certificates to local labour declarations, so your company takes on zero administrative risk.
