Back office support built for industrial recruitment agencies.
From warehouse operatives to skilled trades, we give industrial agencies the funding, payroll and back office support to place more workers and keep the business in good shape.
We understand the industrial recruitment market.
The industrial sector is incredibly important in the UK. From mining and quarrying to forestry and fishing, they’re the lifeblood of many other industries, although they rarely provide anything direct for consumers.
As a result, industrial businesses are under a lot of pressure, both from their own clients and the intense competition from their rivals. To keep up, they need to rely on temporary workers that strengthen their ranks during peak seasons and fill skill gaps when necessary.
This means that there is equally high demand for temporary recruitment agencies who will provide the skilled workers the industrial sector needs.
Why Industrial Agencies need Third Party Support.
Industrial agencies live and die by the quality of their worker database. Behind every placement is a profile, a CV, and a person who chose to stay on your books. With hundreds or even thousands of temporary workers to manage, keeping that database strong is everything.
Clients expect the best shortlist, every time. That puts your team under constant pressure to bring in new workers while keeping the existing ones happy. Workers who aren’t paid on time, or feel ignored, won’t stick around. The best ones will be snapped up by your competitors before you know it.
Industrial agencies bring in third parties to ease the pressure and improve workflow. But not all providers are equal. Some overcharge for poor service and make the problem worse. If your agency is losing workers from its database, or you’re not happy with your current back office provider, we’re here to help.
Running an industrial recruitment agency comes with real growing pains. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.
Your agency, supported
Everything included. One simple fee.
We understand the importance of streamlining an agency. If your permanent team are inundated with admin tasks, they can’t spend enough time on what really matters; mostly bringing in new temporary workers and using them to fill clients’ vacancies.

Recruitment Funding that Works with You.
One of the biggest frustrations agency owners experience when they work with a third party is the lack of communication. No one likes to feel detached, especially when the party in question has access to sensitive data and is in direct contact with your clients.
To avoid this, we set you up with just two points of contact. Once onboarding is complete, everything will be handled by just two people. A Payroll Account Manager and a Credit Controller.
Both of these experts will be in regular contact with your clients, but always on your behalf. This allows you to build a stronger relationship, and you’ll still be kept in the loop with regular reporting. Clients will be more likely to stick around, and you barely have to lift a finger.
