If you're preparing your recruitment agency for sale, investment, or valuation, one thing will always be scrutinised: compliance gaps.

Post-reform, these gaps will become more visible, more expensive, and far harder to explain. Buyers and investors want certainty — not surprises. Any weak umbrella partner, poor supply chain oversight, or uninsured tax exposure can surface during due diligence and immediately affect your valuation.

Here's the reality:

  • Due diligence is forensic
  • Tax exposure can destroy value fast
  • Unverified or uninsured risk is a major red flag
  • Clean, documented supply chains command higher multiples

This is exactly where Orbio makes a difference.

Through Saferec-verified umbrella audits and Orbio Tax Liability Insurance, agencies heading into sale or investment can demonstrate:

  • Fully audited supply chains
  • Verified PAYE/NIC compliance
  • A defensible position if HMRC challenges arise
  • Insurance to cover HMRC disputes and unexpected tax liabilities
  • Reduced uncertainty — boosting valuation and deal confidence

In short: Orbio transforms compliance risk into a documented, insured, investor-ready position.

If you're planning an exit, fundraising, or acquisition, now is the time to tighten gaps, evidence compliance, and insure for any HMRC driven exposures.

Agencies that act now protect themselves, reassure buyers, and preserve the value they've worked hard to build.
