What makes funding firm owners different?

People are the biggest cost

Salaries are paid monthly while clients pay on 30 to 60 day terms. Invoice finance or revolving credit smooths the difference.

Growth means hiring ahead

A new contract needs people in seats before the first invoice goes out.

Buying a book or a firm

Acquiring a client book or a smaller practice is a common route to growth, and a business loan can fund it.

Recruiters pay contractors weekly

Temporary and contract recruitment agencies pay workers long before clients settle. Invoice finance is built for this gap.

Professional services finance questions

Something else on your mind? Ask the team.

Can asset-light firms get funding?
Yes. Unsecured business loans and revolving credit don't require property or equipment as security. We look at turnover, cash flow and client quality.
Do you fund practice acquisitions?
Yes. A business loan can fund the purchase of a client book or firm, subject to status and the details of the deal.
Is invoice finance suitable for recruitment agencies?
It's widely used in recruitment, particularly for temporary and contract placements where workers are paid before clients settle.
