AUSTRALIAN-OWNED, SRI LANKAN OPERATIONS
An Outsourcing Partner with Roots in Two Countries
Founded in 2018, Rebranded in 2024
We started in 2018 because we kept seeing the same problem. Australian businesses needed skilled staff, but local hiring was slow and expensive. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka had a growing pool of English-speaking, university-educated professionals who were hard to reach without a local presence.
We chose Colombo for specific reasons. Sri Lanka produces over 30,000 graduates a year in IT, finance, and business. English is widely spoken in professional settings. The time zone (4.5 hours behind AEST) gives you a genuine overlap for collaboration, plus completed work waiting in your inbox each morning. And the cost of living means you pay less without asking people to accept less.
We began with a small team placing IT support staff for a handful of Australian clients. As word spread, our clients asked for more: marketing support, virtual assistants, data analysts, bookkeepers. By 2023, we ran five service lines from our Colombo office.
In 2024, we rebranded to Anemos, a Greek word meaning wind. The name reflects how we work: quietly, in the background, moving things forward. Today, every engagement is overseen by Australian management, with weekly reviews between our Melbourne and Colombo teams.
Our Mission & Vision
Our Mission
Anemos Australia builds offshore teams that work like local hires. We match Sri Lankan talent with Australian businesses, then keep both sides happy through hands-on management from Melbourne and Colombo. Your team grows. Your costs drop around 36%. Nobody cuts corners.
Our Vision
Anemos exists to make the Australia-Sri Lanka talent corridor the most reliable staffing channel for Australian businesses. We are building an operation where Sri Lankan professionals build real careers, Australian clients get consistent quality, and the distance between Melbourne and Colombo stops being a barrier.
What We Do
We handle the recruitment, employment, and day-to-day management of your offshore team in Colombo. You focus on running your business.
Dedicated Teams
Your offshore staff work exclusively for you. They are not shared across clients or juggling multiple accounts. They report to your managers, join your standups, and use your tools.
Two Offices, One Standard
Our Wheelers Hill office (G26/202 Jells Rd, VIC 3150) handles client relationships. Our Colombo office (121 Muhandiram's Rd) manages the team on the ground. Dedicated QA leads review work before it reaches you, and training leads run structured programmes to keep skills sharp.
Weekly Management Cadence
Every week, our Australian management meets with Colombo team leaders to review workloads, flag issues, and check priorities. Every fortnight, individual teams hold their own review sessions. Problems get caught in days, not months.
Australian-Owned Since 2018
ABN 29 684 507 444. We have been placing offshore staff for Australian businesses since 2018, rebranding to Anemos in 2024. You deal with people who understand Australian employment standards, data privacy rules, and business expectations.
