Do You Support Umbrella Companies or Recruitment Firms?

Yes — we support recruitment firms and PAYE umbrella-style models where the employment relationship remains with the client or umbrella company. However, we do not operate as an umbrella employer ourselves.

✅ What We Support

We provide full payroll services for:

• Recruitment agencies with in-house PAYE employees

• Umbrella companies that employ workers directly under a registered PAYE scheme

• Contract staff employed and paid via your own entity

In these cases, we support:

• Multiple weekly/monthly pay runs

• Statutory deductions (PAYE, NI, pensions)

• Reporting for agency clients or end hirers

• Bulk onboarding and leaver management

❌ What We Don’t Do

We do not act as a traditional umbrella company.
This means:

• We do not employ the worker ourselves

• We do not take over contractual responsibility for the contractor

• We do not pay workers through Intelligent Payroll’s own PAYE scheme

If your model requires that the payroll provider becomes the employer of record, we would not be the right fit.
