Lundi supports compliant employment in Azerbaijan for specialist hires — particularly Russian and Turkish-language talent, plus oil/gas-adjacent engineering. Baku concentrates the senior talent. For larger SSC and engineering teams we typically recommend Poland, Georgia, or Turkey.
Azerbaijan's professional talent is concentrated in Baku — historically anchored by oil and gas sector employers (BP Azerbaijan, SOCAR, plus international energy services). Growing tech and services sector. Azerbaijani manat (AZN) is the local currency. Employer social contributions are moderate. Strong fit for specialist hires with energy-sector or Russian/Turkish-language requirements. For larger teams Lundi typically recommends Poland, Georgia, or Turkey — deeper international-employer infrastructure and more comparable English-language environment.
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

Regardless of their length of service, all employees must give at least one months' notice. Employment contracts can increase employee notice periods up to a maximum of six months. The amount of notice that employers must give employees depends on their length of service
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
