About this episode

Nitin speaks with Chris Fahey, founder of AGPayroll International, about the company's expansion into global payroll services across over 150 countries. AGPayroll has evolved from specialising in UK umbrella and CIS arrangements to offering Employer of Record and self-employed contractor solutions internationally. Chris explains why offshore hiring appeals to recruitment agencies, discussing how rates are often better and contracts are easier to fill abroad.

The conversation covers AGPayroll's SafeRec certification and how it provides compliance assurance for agencies and their clients. Chris and Nitin also discuss the implications of the upcoming employers' National Insurance increase scheduled for April and what it means for the recruitment sector.
