Umbrella recommendation

Sorry, I really should have put the URL in my post rather than assume there is only one PSR (duh).

So the PSR you have is not the correct one.

Yep, we can definitely work with them

Oh... PSR Solutions 'An industry-leading construction recruitment agency' Buggery bollocks... Sorry. That's what happens when the forum idiot jumps on your thread

If Lucy is leaving her marketing to us she might have made a grave error.

Wrong PSR I think

He already pointed that out to me and you know it!!

So isn't that PSR the same as Alexander Mann AMS? So you are on the AMS PSL now?

PSR is AMS as near as makes no difference...

Forgot to add that Lucy is bright enough not to be signing up with agencies who are taking a kickback via insisting on workers being paid before the agency pays the umbrella.

I suspect that is going to lead to be big disaster in the near future and what really annoys me is that that type of scheme has already taken 1 umbrella down (on the night of the 2023 awards no less) but still other umbrellas don't see the problem..

Public Sector Resourcing (PSR) hold exactly that, the Public Sector contracts, but yes part of AMS, so yes we can work with both

Ahhh that's interesting. Didn't realise that. Good news though.

And also interesting. I thought it was just a straight case of the agent getting commission for clients placed and smaller outfits just didn't have the margins to be able to afford it.

Nope, cash up front can be problematic (hey you may have to pay the agent a tiny bit of commission). But delaying paying an umbrella for an extra week or 4 is worth a fortune to an agency's cashflow... Especially when the worker doesn't know...
