About Us

Australian registered. Sri Lanka based.

We built IOG Global to solve a specific problem: offshore capacity that behaves like an in-house team, with the certifications and governance to prove it.

How it All Started

IOG Global began with our CEO and Founder, Shannon Lindsay, whose decades of experience in the industry exposed a widening gap between business demands and available talent. Determined to create a more dependable and transparent model, Shannon built the business around a simple but powerful promise, we build Australian-managed high-performance offshore teams with ongoing leadership mentoring and operational oversight. By anchoring specialised global talent within Australian-led processes, IOG is designed to become a true extension of your own team. His vision redefined how offshoring could serve aspiring businesses – scalable, cost-effective and governed with integrity.
