Hospitality recruitment

Back office support built for hospitality recruitment agencies.

From kitchen porters to event managers, we give hospitality agencies the funding, payroll and back office support to place more staff and keep the business running smoothly.

We understand the hospitality recruitment market.

The hospitality sector is one of the UK’s most important. From hotels and bar staff looking after tourists to event venue staff hosting some of the biggest events of the year, there will always be need for staff to help run these businesses.

To manage high demand, hospitality businesses often rely on temporary workers. Cleaners, catering staff, and even managers can be brought in on a temporary basis to strengthen ranks or cover for absence.

If you run a temporary recruitment agency that specialises in these workers, you’re under a lot of pressure to be the best. With the right back office support, you can gain an edge over your competitors.

Why Hospitality Agencies need Third Party Support.

Every temporary recruitment agency runs on cash flow. If the funds aren’t there, you can’t pay your workers on time — and if clients are slow to settle their invoices, whether that’s their fault or yours, the money won’t be ready when you need it. Workers who aren’t paid on time don’t hang around. And clients who feel ignored, or think your invoicing and support isn’t up to scratch, won’t either.

On top of placing staff and managing clients, your team has a mountain of back office work to get through. When people are stretched, mistakes creep in and client support suffers. It’s not a reflection on your team — it’s just too much for one operation to handle well without the right support in place.

A lot of agencies turn to third party support — but not all providers are worth partnering with. Some don’t have your best interests at heart. Some are hard to get hold of when you need them. At Back Office, you’ll work with the same payroll account manager and the same credit controller every time. They’ll get to know your business properly, and you’ll always know who to call.

Running a hospitality recruitment agency comes with real growing pains. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.

Everything included. One simple fee.

One of the reasons why agency owners avoid third parties is because you usually have to partner with multiple in order to get all the support they need. We keep things simple by combining everything you need into one single service that includes:

  • 100% Funding

    Workers need to be paid on time, every time. We provide 100% funding so you always have the cash to do that, even when client invoices run late.

  • Payroll

    Payroll takes time you probably don't have. We handle it, and you'll always deal with the same people, so they'll quickly get to know your business.

    Explore Payroll
  • Credit Control

    We set credit limits for each of your clients and keep a close eye on them. The same credit controller, every time — so nothing slips through the net.

    Explore Credit Control
  • Invoicing

    Every invoice is checked before it goes out. Fewer errors means fewer reasons for clients to hold up payment.

    Explore Invoicing
  • Debt Protection

    We help protect your agency against bad debt, so one non-paying clients doesn't put everything you've worked hard to build at risk.

  • Dedicated Team

    No waiting in queues, no ticketing systems, just real support from day one from the experts who will know your agency inside out.

Recruitment Funding that Works with You.

When you join, you get two points of contact. These are your payroll account manager, and your credit controller.

As soon as the onboarding process is complete, they’ll be hard at work improving your invoices and keeping a close eye on your clients’ credit limits. This is all to improve the service you provide, and build a better relationship with your clients.

With so many other agencies available, you want as many return clients as you can manage. In hospitality, this can be hotels, venues, or restaurant chains who rely heavily on temporary staff to keep things running smoothly. In order to keep them within the fold, you want to have a solid reputation as an agency that cares about its clients.

With our service comes regular communication with clients. Your payroll account manager and credit controller will both build up a rapport, which can be professional or quite informal, but both ways encourage them to continue working with you.

This human approach is one of the biggest reasons why we’ve been in business for nearly 30 years.
