For Boutique Recruitment & Staffing Agencies
Every placement needs two contracts.
Generate both in under two minutes.
A Recruiter ToB with the client (fee crystallisation, backdoor hire, rebate clause) and a contractor-facing agreement for the placement (IR35-aware, termination, IP). One unsigned document on either side and you're exposed. Growing Agency plan covers 20 contracts a month.

You need contracts in both directions
Recruiter Terms of Business
Protect your placement fee, define exclusivity, lock in your rebate period. Send your T&Cs before the first CV — not after the placement.
Generate Recruiter ToB →Freelance Contracts
A contractor placed by your agency needs a contract too — one that protects your agency on IP, termination, substitution, and IR35 status. Generate one per placement in 60 seconds.
Generate Freelance Contract →The problems — and what fixes them
Problem
Client went direct after your introduction
With LexPact
Candidate ownership clause in your Recruiter ToB. Off-limits period of 12–24 months. Penalty fee if breached.
Problem
Placed contractor — no contract between agency and contractor
With LexPact
Generate a contractor-facing freelance contract per placement. Protects IP, sets termination, defines substitution rights.
Problem
IR35 exposure on contractors you place
With LexPact
Each contractor placement should have an IR35-aware contract. Demonstrates outside-IR35 status on substitution, control, and MOO.
Problem
Re-typing the same T&Cs for every new client
With LexPact
Generate once. The contract is tailored to each client relationship — fee %, rebate schedule, exclusivity terms — in 60 seconds.
Growing Agency — £79/month
20 contracts a month. Enough for 10 placements.
Each placement = 1 Recruiter ToB + 1 contractor agreement. At 10 placements/month, Growing Agency pays for itself in the first hour of the first placement.
IR35 — if you place limited company contractors
If your agency places contractors operating through their own limited companies, each engagement should be assessed for IR35 status. An IR35-aware contract demonstrably covers substitution, control, and mutuality of obligation — the three HMRC tests.
Generate IR35 Services Agreement →Questions from agency owners
What's the difference between a Recruiter ToB and a standard service agreement?
A Recruiter Terms of Business is built specifically for UK recruitment law — it covers the Conduct of Employment Agencies Regulations 2003, placement fee percentage, rebate/clawback periods, off-limits clauses, and candidate ownership. A standard service agreement doesn't include any of these. If you're placing permanent or contract candidates, use the Recruiter ToB.
Do I need a separate contract for each contractor I place?
Yes. Each contractor placement should have its own freelance contract between your agency and the contractor. This covers the specific engagement — rate, scope, termination, IR35 status, IP. Generate a new one for each placement in 60 seconds, pre-filled with client and contractor details.
What tier makes sense for an agency placing 5+ contractors a month?
Solo Professional (£29/month, 8 contracts) or Growing Agency (£79/month, 20 contracts). At 5 placements/month, each placement needs at minimum a Recruiter ToB and a contractor-facing freelance contract — that's 10+ contracts before you count NDAs. Solo Professional pays for itself on the first placement.
Does the contractor-facing contract cover IR35?
The IR35 Services Agreement is built specifically to demonstrate outside-IR35 status — it explicitly covers substitution rights, control provisions, and mutuality of obligation under Chapter 10 ITEPA 2003. Use this for contractors operating through limited companies where IR35 is a concern.
