Here at the Parasol Group we are proud to be an IOR Partner. Across our three operating brands, Parasol, ClearSky Accounting and Silverline, we have been a key partner to UK staffing businesses since our launch in 2000. We are known for being innovative, compliant (Parasol is a founding member of the FCSA) and for successfully mitigating risk for the recruitment agencies that we work with. We always adopt a consultative approach and work with our partners in the way that best suits them so look forward to being able to provide help and advice to IOR members wherever possible.  

-    Free face to face workshops or training sessions on various topics relevant to the recruitment industry: AWR legislation, how an umbrella    company works, Bribery Act, MSC legislation, IR35, Pension issues, etc etc
-    Where recruitment agencies supply groups of interims for projects, Parasol can offer group processing arrangements
-    Free checklist on how to put together a robust Preferred Supplier List and information and advice on how to avoid weaknesses in the agency supply chain
-    Access for IOR corporate members to Parasol’s comprehensive white paper on the umbrella market
-    Consultation and advice about the recent AWR legislation and best practice for staffing businesses going forwards
-    Consultation and advice on the implementation and management of the upcoming Pension legislation
-    Exclusive discount on Silverline for IOR members
-    For IOR member candidates joining Parasol, they’ll receive a £50 joining bonus and for candidates who become ClearSky clients, we’ll give  them free company incorporation – worth £125. Finally for recruiters who refer to either Parasol or ClearSky, we can offer £100 worth of vouchers of their choice per referral.

The Parasol Group is made up of three companies: Parasol, ClearSky Accounting and Silverline and is a key partner to thousands of UK staffing businesses. Parasol is the UK’s leading outsourced employment services provider, ClearSky is an expert accountancy practice, specialising in accounting for SMEs, contractors and freelancers, and Silverline is the latest Group venture delivering cloud-based sales performance software.

We have recently launched our Best Advice initiative which is proving successful with recruiters and contractors alike. The Parasol Group has both the limited company or umbrella routes available – umbrella service through Parasol or limited company option through ClearSky Accounting. So whether your candidates been contracting for years or are just starting out, we will make sure that they get the best possible service and can also offer Best Advice as to which route is right for them if they’re not sure.

Parasol has also navigated the MSC, IR35 and recent AWR legislation smoothly and effectively and is now developing our solutions for the upcoming Pensions legislation coming into force later this year.

Silverline is going from strength to strength since launching in late 2011 and is adding new clients each month.
