Use Case

Contract & Interim Recruitment

Contract and interim hiring demands speed above all else. A project is delayed, a key person is off sick, a transformation programme needs a specialist who can start immediately. RecXchange gives you access to 15,000+ specialist recruiters with active, available contractor pipelines — delivering pre-screened interim professionals faster than any single agency can.

Why Contract Recruitment Is Different

Permanent recruitment can afford a 4–6 week process. Contract and interim hiring often cannot. Contractors are available now or not at all — the good ones are placed within days of becoming available. Traditional contingency agencies work their own contractor bench first. By the time a generalist agency searches their database and reaches out, the best contractors have already accepted other roles. RecXchange's parallel matching means your requirement hits multiple specialist contractor networks simultaneously.

Sectors & Specialist Contractor Types

RecXchange covers contract and interim hiring across: Technology (Software Engineers, DevOps, Data Engineers, Cybersecurity, Programme Managers), Finance (Interim CFO, Financial Controllers, FP&A, Treasury, Audit), Engineering (Project Engineers, Site Managers, M&E Contractors, Structural), HR & People (Interim HR Director, TUPE Specialists, ER Advisors), Operations (Supply Chain, Logistics, Procurement) and Healthcare (Locum Consultants, Agency Nurses, Allied Health Professionals).

Speed: From Brief to Contractor Start

RecXchange clients hiring contract roles typically receive first contractor profiles within 24–48 hours of posting. The Xchange Engine activates specialist contractor recruiters immediately — recruiters who know exactly which contractors in their network are available now, have the right clearances, and can mobilise quickly. Your dedicated Account Manager manages IR35 status, right-to-work checks, and contract generation in-platform.

IR35 & Compliance

RecXchange's contract hiring workflow includes IR35 status determination support, right-to-work verification, and auto-generated contractor agreements that meet UK employment law requirements. For inside-IR35 engagements, umbrella company integrations are available in-platform. For outside-IR35 contracts, Schedule of Services agreements are auto-generated based on the agreed terms between hiring manager and recruiter.
