The contingent workforce partner for agile enterprises

Whatever the sector, if your business operates a large head office in London or the South East, our contingent workforce solutions will deliver the flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and access to specialised skills you need to handle fluctuating demand and maintain competitiveness in a dynamic business environment.

We have the experience to rely on. In terms of culture and process, our teams and systems can integrate so seamlessly you won’t see the join. However, with our friendly and helpful approach, we guarantee you will notice the positive benefit to your internal HR function.

In an uncertain world, flexibility you can rely on

Resourcing

We undertake all the search and selection activities, including job specification, advertising, candidate selection, right-to-work and reference checking, and interview management.

Employment

Your contingent workforce is off your books. Even though they work at your site and are managed locally, we legally employ every contingent worker.

Management

We provide all the HR services related to your contingent workforce, including onboarding, payroll, benefits, expense claims, appraisals, PIPs, disciplinary proceedings, and more.

Forecasting

We can do the calculations necessary to provide accurate departmental and employee budgets for the forthcoming year.

How we help businesses

Our contingent service helps to make large enterprises more agile, enabling a head-office headcount to adapt to business demands quickly and cost-effectively – without the financial investment, bureaucracy, and inertia associated with managing a traditional full-time workforce.

High-quality flexible headcount is efficiently delivered with a single monthly invoice, eliminating the need for you to invest time and money in recruitment and ongoing HR management, as our dedicated expert team handles these aspects. It also reduces risk, with efficient restructuring accomplished without rounds of hiring and redundancy for permanent employees.

What you can expect from us

We have reached preferred supplier status with all our clients, even when taking over TUPEs (Transfer of Undertaking (Protection of Employment) Regulations) from incumbent partners. Our capability and success are founded on understanding and close collaboration.

Our dedicated account managers get to know their client businesses inside out and are acknowledged for their ability to share knowledge, establish trust, and build rapport. That is also why we have a deliberate geographic focus – our regular on-site presence facilitates proactive responses and frictionless communications.

  • Comprehensive service

    Whether overseeing all aspects of the talent acquisition process or providing wraparound HR management services for contingent employees, we serve as your fully outsourced HR department or alleviate the burden on your in-house team.
  • Flexibility

    Where other providers require you to outsource an entire department, we flex to meet your requirements, providing a contingent workforce across all departments within your head office.
  • Adaptability

    Changing your HR technology, systems, processes, and protocols is unnecessary. We adapt to fit each client’s circumstances, suggesting changes only when mutual benefit exists.
  • Cost savings

    Our remuneration is based on an agreed percentage of payroll, irrespective of the number of hires or how often the same position is rehired. This arrangement can save you considerable sums compared to standard recruitment fees.
  • Regulatory compliance

    We accept the responsibility for ensuring that your contingent workforce complies with all relevant employment laws and regulations.
  • Cultural fit

    On a day-to-day operational basis, we strive to ensure no apparent difference between headcount and contingent employees. Contingent teams fully integrate into your organisation’s culture and practices, including social events, training, and team-building activities – where we cover attendance costs if necessary.
