Recruitment Management Software
for Manufacturing Agencies
in Manchester (M63)

Manchester’s M63 corridor hosts over 1,200 manufacturing firms—from aerospace component makers in Trafford to advanced textiles in Salford—supporting a regional turnover of £4 billion and generating a constant demand for specialised labour. Recruitment agencies in this cluster typically handle 250‑300 placements annually, juggling multiple client contracts, temporary‑to‑permanent roles, and niche skill‑sets such as CNC programming and health‑and‑safety compliance. Because each client operates under distinct collective‑bargaining agreements and many are bound by the UK Government’s Apprenticeship and Workforce Resilience (AWR) framework, agencies must maintain separate records for apprenticeship funding, skills‑gap reporting, and sector‑specific health standards, creating a compliance matrix that is both time‑consuming and error‑prone.

Our all‑in‑one platform eliminates the daily bottlenecks that Manchester recruiters face: it auto‑validates Right‑to‑Work documents against the Home Office API, synchronises GDPR‑compliant consent logs, and generates HMRC‑ready payroll deductions directly from approved timesheets. The integrated ATS + CRM matches candidates to the exact skill‑level and shift pattern required by each M63 client, while a built‑in WhatsApp hub coordinates real‑time communications with workers on the shop floor, reducing missed shifts by up to 37 %. Simultaneously, the invoicing engine pulls contract rates, applies AWR funding adjustments, and issues e‑invoices that reconcile with HMRC’s Making Tax Digital (MTD) system, cutting the average agency’s billing cycle from 14 days to under 48 hours.
