Specialist contracts for every way you work

Specialist PAYE contracts for recruitment agencies

Engaging workers directly doesn’t have to mean added risk. Our framework PAYE contract makes direct hire simple, compliant, and fully protected, with click acceptance, assignment forms, and auto-updates built in.

Framework umbrella agreements you can trust

Umbrella compliance is under pressure. Generic terms won’t cut it. Our umbrella agreement is legally robust, with conduct opt-out, assignment forms, click acceptance, and auto-updates to keep you covered.

Go beyond recruitment & unlock consultancy opportunities

Our consultancy agreements let you deliver services under a compliant framework, manage sub-consultancies, and take control of IR35, opening doors to higher-margin projects and frameworks.

A message from our CEO - Adrian Marlowe

When we started trading back in 1997, we were the original recruitment specialists. Even now, our in-depth knowledge of both law and recruitment is a rare thing.

Several of our earliest clients are still with us today, still succeeding in a notoriously competitive industry. They trust us to deliver the contracts, advice and ongoing support they need to remain ahead of the game.

If you’re in any doubt about the strength of our contracts, there’s no better testimony than this:

In nearly 30 years, they’ve never been successfully challenged. We intend to keep it that way.

Adrian Marlowe Founder of Lawspeed and Chairman of The Association of Recruitment Consultancies (ARC)
Fighting for fair
The Association of Recruitment Consultancies (ARC)

In 2003, the government adopted our proposal to allow company opt-outs from the Agency Conduct Regs.

In 2010, we launched ARC (the Association of Recruitment Consultancies) to fight against unhelpful, fee-draining agency worker legislation that affects recruiters, with great results!

We’ve been in the room, at the table, and in the press, standing up for recruitment agencies when it matters most.

We’ve succeeded numerous times. And we’re not done yet.

You’ll have questions, so we’ve answered some of them here.

If your question doesn’t appear, please feel free to get in touch. We’ll happily provide the answer.
