Belgium Management Support (BMS) review: a Brussels Employer of Record with its own payroll
A Brussels private limited company set up in 2021 that employs client staff on its own NSSO-registered payroll and files accounts to prove it. We read the Crossroads Bank record and three years of filed accounts, then scored the service on the same eight Belgian criteria as every provider in our ranking.
The most Belgian option in our ranking, and the least documented online.
Belgium Management Support does the thing most global platforms only describe: it is a Belgian company that employs people in Belgium. The SRL was registered in Etterbeek in June 2021, registered with the National Social Security Office as an employer the same month, and its filed accounts show 6.2 full-time equivalents in 2022, 18.2 in 2023 and 21.5 in 2024, with a profit each year and equity of about €592,000. Its own site puts that at nine clients and 22 employed staff. Payroll and tax run through a Belgian accounting partner with offices outside Brussels rather than one of the large social secretariats, and the company is part-owned by Le Cheminant International, a Cambridge payroll outsourcer that covers other countries through partners. What it has not done is write any of this down for buyers: no price list, no onboarding timeline, no statement of which Article 31 route it uses, and a website that is English-only with UK and Swiss phone numbers. For a company placing one to five people in Belgium who wants a named Belgian employer and a director who picks up the phone, it is the strongest fit here. For anyone who needs a platform, integrations or a published contract, it is not.
Choose Belgium Management Support if you are placing a handful of staff in Belgium, you want the employer to be a Belgian company with its own payroll, and you value a director who knows your employees by name over software. Look elsewhere if you need published pricing before a first call, a self-service portal or integrations, hires in several countries on one contract, or a Dutch-language website for your Flemish hires.
Who actually employs your staff: Belgium Management Support SRL
The Crossroads Bank for Enterprises lists Belgium Management Support, abbreviated B.M.S., as a private limited company (SRL/BV) with enterprise number 0769.865.937, started on 18 June 2021 and registered as an NSSO employer from 28 June 2021. Its registered office is Avenue de la Chasse 133/135 in Etterbeek, Brussels. The director recorded since incorporation is Angélica Cotillo Perez de de Vrij, whom the website names as its Belgium director; the site refers to two working directors but names only one.
The accounts filed with the National Bank are the useful part. Full-time equivalents rose from 6.2 in 2022 to 21.5 in 2024 while the client count stayed at nine, which is exactly the profile of an Employer of Record carrying client staff on its own payroll. The company has been profitable in every filed year (€144,000, €185,000 and €257,000) and had equity of €592,000 at end-2024. The register shows no authorisations, so no regional temporary-work-agency licence is recorded, and the website does not state which Article 31 route the company relies on. Note that the domain recorded on the register (.be) does not resolve; the live site is the .com.
