Running your own recruitment company means making more money for yourself. So, based
on your billings, here ’s what you could get in take-home earnings:
Otherwise known as ‘the boring stuff’. The reason you’re probably here in the first place. It’s no secret that recruiters don’t like doing admin, and there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes to set up a recruitment company.
Arguably the most important part of your new business – the money. Being a Director of a limited company comes with a litany of responsibilities to HMRC and it’s very easy to get it wrong.
Your brand is so much more than a collection of colours and fonts. From our very first ‘brand discovery workshop’ with you, we work to carve out a unique brand that brings your message to market in the most effective way.
Just because you’re a one-man band shouldn’t mean you can’t compete with the big names in the industry. We’ll provide you with a market leading tech-stack so that you can hit the ground running.
Working for yourself can be isolating, particularly in the first few months where you might be working from home, or you haven’t hired anyone yet.
It’s only natural that you might need some guidance along the journey of becoming your own boss. We offer all of our partners the opportunity to have regular check.
We enable recruiters to launch and run their full equity owned business – with our full support along the journey. Using our extensive experience of assisting recruiters start and then reach their ambitions, you have a full team at hand to make your recruitment business a success. Seamlessly assisting you to take control and lead your vision. Be that a profitable lifestyle sole trader business to a scalable, high headcount multiple territory recruitment enterprise.
At Recruiter Labs, we’re all about supporting recruiters who are ready to take the leap into starting their own recruitment company, so whether you’re just exploring the idea or you’re already deep into the process we can talk you through your options.
Our ideal partners are recruiters with experience working in a 360 recruitment role and a proven track record of doing your own business development and who are looking to scale their careers, take control of their futures, and build something incredible.
We’ve helped all kinds of recruiters get their businesses up and running, and we know that no two journeys are the same. If you’ve got the passion and drive, we’ve got the tools, support, and know-how to help you launch and scale your own recruitment company.

Nine years into my recruitment career and one quarter into my new business my only question… ‘Why didn’t I do this sooner?!’
I’ve been with Recruiter Labs 2 years now and been really happy with the initial set up and service since. Chloe and her team are already really helpful and always there if you need them. Dan is extremely knowledgeable and good at what he does. It can be quite isolating working for yourself at times (without staff) so those catch ups and insight with Dan I personally find really beneficial. Thanks to Recruiter Labs for helping me to set up by myself, I now earn far more and work less hours so I will be forever grateful for that!
“From the options I had at my disposal, Recruiter Labs stood out as not only people centric but a match in terms of ambition for my organisation. The fundamentals in creating a platform for recruitment success have been delivered at pace for Rowley Heron Associates.”
“Launching through Recruiter Labs was one of the best business decisions I have made in my recruitment career! Having started my search looking for capital investment; I was blown away by Recruiter Labs brand, determination and passion for helping people to get up and running.
It can be a lonely path setting up your own agency. With Recruiter Labs, It has softened this blow and helped me to stay focused on the things that really matter. As well as this, they have provided me with a network of people in the same position; many of whom have become my friends over the last year.
Having worked with Joe, Sarah, Chloe and Dan. Every one of them has added value to my business over the last 12 months and I cannot speak highly enough of the service and advice that I have received!”

I have been part of Recruiter Labs for almost two years now, and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and communication.
Their team of experts is highly knowledgeable in their respective specialisms. Most importantly, they are always available to answer my questions, provide guidance, and offer unwavering support whenever I need it.
Making the decision to join Recruiter Labs wasn’t easy—I was hesitant about such a significant change. However, it has turned out to be the best professional move I’ve made so far.
Couldn’t have done it without Chloe’s enthusiasm and confidence in me, especially on the days when I doubted myself the most. Chloe has been both a great listener and a source of invaluable business advice.
Dan, who has recently joined the team, has certainly hit the ground running! If you’re ever in need of a motivational pep talk, he’s your guy. Despite my 10 years in recruitment, Dan has taught me new techniques and insights I didn’t think I’d still be learning.
The entire team at Recruiter Labs has shown impeccable patience with me. I’m someone who asks question after question and, admittedly, makes more mistakes than I’d like. Yet, they are always happy to help, even with the simplest of issues.
Overall, I highly recommend Recruiter Labs to anyone even slightly contemplating starting their own recruitment company. With their support and expertise, you can be confident in achieving your recruitment goals and taking your business to new heights.
When thinking about setting up on my own, I looked at different prospective businesses that I could work in partnership with.
I met with Joe in December, having mutual connections and was really bought into the service he could provide me with and furthermore what he was trying to achieve. In comparison with bigger companies, Joe’s approach was very down to earth, informative and I liked the fact he was honest and direct.
Since working in partnership with Recruiter Labs the whole team have been really helpful and couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
My experience with Recruiter Labs has been exceptional. My new company set up has been so smooth and professional, and they have done exactly what I had wanted, which is to let me get on with the Recruitment job while having all the necessary support for everything else.
Can’t recommend this team highly enough. Not only do you get advice from industry experts and other founders in the same position as you right now but you also get a tailored tech stack, marketing, finance and all the infrastructure that you need to succeed. It’s a team that truly care about your success and hasn’t felt transactional at any point!
