Recruitment Management Software
for Manufacturing Agencies
in Manchester (M36)

Manchester’s M36 industrial corridor hosts over 150 manufacturing firms ranging from precision engineering to food processing, and the area supports more than 30 specialist recruitment agencies that collectively place 4,000+ temporary and permanent workers each year. Agency owners in M36 must navigate a dense regulatory web: the Agency Workers Regulations (AWR) demand continuous “pay equality” reporting, Right‑to‑Work checks must be refreshed every 12 months under Home Office guidance, GDPR requires auditable consent logs for every candidate file, and HMRC payroll rules impose real‑time filing of PAYE and National Insurance contributions for each contract worker. Missing any of these obligations triggers fines that can exceed £10,000 per breach, driving agencies to invest heavily in compliance staff and manual spreadsheets.

Our all‑in‑one platform eliminates the day‑to‑day friction that Manchester recruiters face by integrating ATS, CRM, compliance, invoicing and WhatsApp into a single dashboard. Automated timesheet capture links directly to HMRC’s Real‑Time Information API, while built‑in Right‑to‑Work verification flags expiring documents before they become a liability. Candidate matching uses AI trained on M36’s sector‑specific skill taxonomies, and the WhatsApp hub synchronises client and worker conversations with candidate records, cutting the average coordination time from 45 minutes to under 5. Invoicing is generated instantly from approved timesheets, ensuring cash flow for agencies that bill on a weekly basis, and the compliance audit trail satisfies AWR and GDPR inspectors with a single click.
