Why companies and agencies stay

Admin-vetted process

Every worker, company, and introduction is reviewed by our team before any party makes contact.

Real-time pipeline visibility

Every stage — match, offer, visa, active — is tracked in a shared dashboard. No black boxes, no lost files.

Milestone-based billing

Placement fees split 35/65 across offer acceptance and active start. You never pay the full fee upfront.

Visa-denial protection

If a worker's visa is denied, the contract is voided and a €500 retention fee is paid to the worker. No one loses to bureaucracy.

Built for everyone in the process

Whether you're looking for work, looking to hire, or building a recruitment business — Manomundi gives every party a dedicated portal and a transparent experience.

    Fast-track D1 Employment Visa with 20-business-day processing for construction. Full pipeline from document collection to arrival — visible to all parties.

Market Opportunity

The right moment, the right corridor

Portugal's construction boom — fueled by EU recovery funds and an ageing workforce — created a perfect opening for Mexico's most skilled tradespeople.
