All Services
Ancillary Services
Our ancillary services are available to all our clients. If a case requires a specific service such as legal action or debtor tracing, the associated issuing cost will be explained to you before any speculative action is taken and we will require your express instruction before undertaking any fee incurring work.
No collection, no commission
In most cases, our typical commission rate is 15%, and we only charge commission if we successfully collect. Which means we’re fully focused on getting results.
Dependent on our clients’ terms and conditions, or relevant legislation, costs may also be recovered where we are legally able to do so.
Debt Recovery Services for Recruitment Agencies in the UK
Unpaid fees can disrupt operations for recruiters of all sizes, whether you specialise in permanent placements, contract staff or temp cover. When a client fails to pay, the time and cost of sourcing candidates goes unrecovered. We help recruitment agencies collect overdue fees quickly and professionally while preserving important client relationships wherever possible.
Our team understands the challenges recruiters face, including disputes over candidate start dates, unclear terms and unpaid temp invoices. We offer clear communication, progress updates on a no collection, no commission basis, designed to support your internal team. Whether you’re chasing a single overdue fee or need long-term recovery support, we’re here to help.
