Pay weekly, invoice monthly: invoice finance for recruiters

Few sectors feel the pay-now, get-paid-later squeeze as sharply as temporary recruitment. You pay contractors weekly while clients settle invoices monthly — and the faster you place, the wider that gap grows. Invoice finance is almost tailor-made for the problem.

1. It bridges the weekly-vs-monthly gap

Advancing up to 90% of each invoice within 24 to 48 hours means the cash to pay this week's contractors is there, even though the client won't pay for a month. The single biggest constraint on temp recruitment — funding the payroll gap — effectively disappears.

2. Funding grows as you place more

Because the facility scales with your invoicing, every new placement brings its own funding headroom. You can take the next contract without first waiting to be paid for the last — growth funds itself.

3. Timesheet finance fits the workflow

Recruitment-specific timesheet finance is designed around how agencies actually bill, turning approved timesheets into funded invoices smoothly and quickly.

4. Optional credit control

Hand collections to the funder and your team spends its time placing candidates and winning clients, not chasing payment. For a lean agency, that focus is worth a lot.
