About

Stephen Jagger is an entrepreneur, author and speaker. He started his entrepreneurial journey in 2000 when he and long time business partner Mike Stephenson setup Combustion Hosting (acquired ’06), followed by Ubertor Realtor Software (acquired ’13). In 2012 they headed to the Philippines and set up OutsourcingThingsDone.com to provide virtual assistants to real estate professionals. OutsourcingThingsDone.com grew to 150 employees and discovered a need for HR and payroll software for the Philippines and Singapore. They answered that call by setting up a company called PayrollHero, focused on time, attendance, scheduling, HR and payroll. After living in Manila and Singapore for 4 years with his wife and children, Stephen returned back to Vancouver to launch addy to eradicate barriers to property ownership for everyone. Stephen is the co-President of the Vancouver College Alumni Association and sits as a Director of The Mel Jr. & Marty Zajac Foundation.
