Effortless agent compliance. Real-time visibility.
HE Comply centralises agent agreements, approvals, and audit trails. We reduce risk and give leaders live visibility of crucial agent performance data.
Why we built HE Comply
International recruitment is changing fast. Increasing regulation - including Australia's evolving ESOS standards - brings added layers of process and checks. University & college teams must protect ESOS compliance whilst still delivering growth or meeting caps. Yet many lack the requisite holistic visibility of contracts, commission and bonus terms, and compliance indicators. This creates risk for executive teams and slows corrective decision-making.
When I started my career in the international recruitment sector twenty years ago, agency agreements were held in local C:Drives or on email threads, and commission was tracked in spreadsheets. It was hard to evidence why decisions were taken, and audits were always a challenge. For some providers, little has changed in two decades despite agents often now contributing a large share of their fee revenue.
With increased pressures on operational staff, we built HE Comply to make it simpler to deliver against ESOS compliance and commercial targets.
We save providers time, reduce errors, and improve senior leader reporting. We would be happy to give you a brief demo and discuss how HE Comply may benefit your institution.

FAQs
International recruitment through agents can cost millions of dollars annually, and all activity begins with - and is driven by - the contracts. Costs and outcomes cannot be fully optimised without accurate performance data at the contract level.
With growing regulation, including renewed ESOS standards, senior leaders need clear oversight of who is making decisions around recruitment partners. Relying on shared folders or local drives leaves university & college executive teams exposed to risk.
You decide who has access and what permissions they hold. A CFO or COO may act as an approver on new or renewed contracts before release to the agent. International Office staff may manage contracts operationally, or these may be routed through Legal. Executive leaders can be granted full visibility.
Contracts can be shared selectively with individual staff, and universities can choose whether agents see the same agreements.
Yes. Partnered agencies can record their sub-agents, and universities can adjust this list by country or by agency. Sub-agents posing risk or showing weak conversion can be restricted from submitting applications. This is integral to ESOS compliance.
This also supports market focus, allowing universities to prioritise certain regions and pause others as intake needs or visa risk ratings change.
