Recruitment

Recruitment CRM built around how agencies actually place candidates

Generic CRMs force recruitment into a sales pipeline model. We build systems that understand both sides of the relationship: clients who need talent and candidates who need the right role.

Sector Challenges

Challenges recruitment teams face with generic CRMs

Forced into a sales pipeline model

Generic CRMs treat recruitment like product sales. But agency workflows are dual-sided: you manage relationships with hiring clients and candidates simultaneously, and no standard pipeline captures that.

Candidate and client data scattered

CVs in email attachments, interview notes in spreadsheets, compliance documents in shared drives. When data lives in five places, nothing is reliable and placements fall through the cracks.

IR35 and AWR compliance tracking

IR35 status determinations, AWR qualifying periods, and right-to-work documentation require structured tracking that generic CRM custom fields cannot reliably provide.

What We Build

What a recruitment CRM looks like

Dual-sided pipeline

Separate but linked pipelines for client vacancies and candidate journeys. Match candidates to roles with structured skill and availability data, not free-text notes.

Placement tracking

Track every placement from shortlist through interview to start date, with automated reminders for probation reviews and extension discussions.

Compliance workflow (IR35, AWR)

Structured IR35 status determination records, AWR qualifying period tracking, and right-to-work document management with expiry alerts.

Automated reference chasing

Trigger reference requests automatically at the right stage. Track responses, chase outstanding references, and flag gaps before they delay placements.

Margin and commission reporting

Real-time visibility into placement margins, consultant commission calculations, and revenue forecasting based on confirmed and pipeline placements.

Regulatory Compliance

Built for IR35, AWR, and GDPR requirements

Recruitment agencies face a complex web of employment legislation and data protection obligations. Your CRM should make compliance easier, not harder.

IR35 status determination workflows with full audit trails, ensuring every contractor engagement has a documented assessment before work begins.

AWR qualifying period tracking with automated alerts, so your team never misses a 12-week threshold or parity obligation.

GDPR consent management for candidate data, including automated retention schedules, opt-out handling, and subject access request support.
