Five Common Recruitment Agency Pain Points and Cool Company’s Solution
Tax and salary management
This has a huge impact on a recruitment business. In terms of finance, reputation, and compliance. Get it wrong, and you’ll face problems from a range of different areas. Professional Passport accredited and compliant, Cool Company takes responsibility for all contract worker payments and deductions, removing the burden from the recruitment agency by providing full communication and support and even managing the country-specific tax requirements of overseas contractors.
Contractor communication and customer support
Recruitment agencies deal with such vast numbers of contractors and businesses, staying on top of communication and customer support can be incredibly time-consuming.
Cool Company has a dedicated department devoted to dealing with contractor and customer communication, no question, query, or demand is ever missed.
Compliance
Whether it’s the changing rules around IR35 or anti-discrimination legislation, recruiters know that contractors and clients have a lot of compliance issues to handle but they don’t always have the necessary resources to help.
Cool Company can manage all contractor compliance issues ensuring that recruiters and their clients don’t have to worry about falling foul of any legislation or rule changes. All liability lies with Cool Company.
Uplift rate calculations
When you’re trying to win new consultants from the competition or negotiating rates, it can be difficult to calculate the relevant rate uplift.
Contractor onboarding and management
Contractor onboarding is no longer a simple matter of making introductions. References have to be checked, holiday pay agreed upon and holiday time managed, and key information documents secured and authenticated.

We also provide tools for document management, calculating holiday pay, and other key processes. And with a single point of contact for both the agency and the contractor, there is never any risk of miscommunication.
