Recruitment agencies finance

Recruitment has a structural cashflow gap: you pay contractors weekly but invoice clients monthly, and every new placement makes the gap bigger, not smaller. We match agencies to invoice and payroll funding built precisely for that mismatch, so growth never outruns your cash.

Common funding needs

  • Bridging the weekly-pay, monthly-invoice gap

Worth knowing

Invoice and payroll finance is the standard answer here, funding wages against your timesheets and client invoices.

Because funding scales with your sales ledger, the facility grows as you place more, rather than capping you at a fixed limit.

How does invoice finance solve the recruitment payroll gap?

It advances most of each client invoice as soon as it's raised, giving you the cash to pay contractors this week instead of waiting until the client settles next month.

Does the funding grow as we place more contractors?

Yes, invoice finance scales with your sales ledger, so available funding rises with your billings rather than being fixed.
