✔ Support from a solicitor – No template portals, no PDFs to figure out yourself. You get real legal expertise.
Standard employment templates don’t cut it in the recruitment world. Agencies work at the intersection of employment, commercial, and regulatory law — and need documentation that reflects:
Temp and contractor assignments (PAYE, umbrella, or PSC)
The Conduct of Employment Agencies and Businesses Regulations 2003
AWR, IR35, and the Onshore Intermediaries Legislation
Dual responsibilities to workers and client organisations
Internal staff management (consultants, resourcers, back office)
We work with recruiters every day to make sure their contracts, handbooks, and policies actually work — legally and commercially.
Internal staff contracts (consultants, resourcers, BD, directors)
Temp/contractor engagement contracts
Contractor opt-out clauses
Fixed-term and zero-hours contracts
Freelancer & consultant terms
Master service agreements (MSAs)
Terms of business (permanent, temp & hybrid models)
RPO & managed service documentation
Fee clauses, rebate periods & exclusivity protections

This list is by no means exhaustive, so please contact us for further information.
