Based in Harrow, Middlesex, the company works with a range of clients including local authorities, housing associations, charitable trusts and professional service companies.
During the early stages of setting up the business, Shau approached recruitment back office services specialist, Oriel, to support the growing business. At a time when Prentis employed only 3 staff, Oriel's full support service including payroll, helped Prentis Solutions get off to a good start.
Now with a turnover of around £2million and 7 staff, the payroll is operated in-house and Oriel has helped facilitate this change. As any agency knows all too well, in order to look professional you must ensure your temporary staff are paid on time, every time. Shau comments: "Now we simply upload an invoice onto the online system and Oriel issue it. It's very straightforward and we have the security of knowing that our temps will be paid even if there are issues around credit limits."
With regards to the relationship with Oriel, Shau adds: "Oriel work hard to give me a dedicated contact for each service, for example I have specific contacts for invoicing, credit control, credit ratings and relationship management. That way I always know I can approach the right expert directly for what I need."
Using Oriel's services has enabled Prentis Solutions to have access to reliable cashflow, the most important element for any growing business.
