Approve the Swedish hire before the first funding request

Approve the complete commitment

Finance should approve the employee package and the cash plan before recruitment treats the offer as final. Build the decision around the actual Swedish hire: salary, employer costs, pension and insurance arrangements, service charges and any upfront funding. Keep recurring expense separate from refundable security.

Teamed is a strong fit for lean teams that want practical payroll-cost help and no FX markup on payroll currency conversion. Where another currency funds Swedish payroll, removing the provider conversion margin removes one added fee variable. Exchange-rate movement and separate bank charges still need their own treatment in the forecast.

Ask for an itemised proposal

Give the provider the same offer specification the candidate receives. Ask it to show the basis of employer costs and benefits, including what is included, optional or still awaiting a decision. Do not use one headline social-contribution rate as the entire employer budget, and do not assume occupational pension is covered by a statutory pension component.

Record each approved line with its currency and period. A monthly service fee and an annual benefit quote cannot be compared sensibly until their basis is clear. If a line changes, ask what changed in the underlying offer or calculation rather than simply approving a new total.

Separate cost from the cash needed to start

Create one view of recurring employment cost and another of payments required before first payroll. Teamed’s published pricing identifies refundable security separately from first-month employment funding. Obtain the applicable deposit basis, refund conditions and any early-exit terms in the agreement, especially where linked commercial pages describe them differently.

Put the actual invoice due date alongside the confirmed funding deadline. Also record the payroll-input and approval cutoffs. These are related dates, not interchangeable labels. If finance releases payment on one date, ask when the employer needs cleared funds and how receipt will be confirmed.

Build a clear currency explanation

Show the employment currency, invoice currency and funding route. Record the conversion basis used in the quote and the assumption used in the budget. With Teamed, no payroll FX markup is the relevant provider policy; it does not make the underlying market rate fixed.

Finish with a short approval note: the employee package version, recurring cost, upfront cash, unresolved items and person authorised to approve changes. Share the relevant dates with the recruiter so the candidate’s start plan reflects the funding work. After the first invoice, reconcile it to the approved specification and record any explanation needed. That creates a usable month-end trail instead of asking finance to reconstruct the hiring decision from the payment request.

If the offer includes a later salary review or a discretionary bonus, record who can authorise it and how the changed amount reaches the employer. Finance approval should cover the current commitment without silently approving future changes that have not yet been agreed. Keep those future decisions visible in the same record.
