We set you up with the most cutting-edge tools and backoffice support you need to just focus on recruiting! Your CRM, website, VOIP phoneline and number, LinkedIn Recruiter license, whichever job boards you need, the full Microsoft 365 suite, Broadbean, online temp payroll, and more!

Honestly, the sky is the limit! There is genuinely no cap on what you can earn. Self-employed recruiters can easily earn four times what they would under an agency commission structure doing the same job, you can expect this to be about 70% of what you bill.
Simply, yes. Often the factor that prevents talented recruiters from launching their own business is the fear of not being able to afford their financial commitments during the transition into self-employment. Sunblink can provide secure investment to launch recruiters in the best and more secure way possible.
Absolutely. You have full commercial, financial and operational control over your business as the principal shareholder. You own all intellectual property associated with your business and all of your own data (including database). Basically, it is your company so you make all of the decisions. We are simply there to help and advise when needed.
We have plenty of experience dealing with and advising on what can and can’t be done if you are under restrictive covenants or non-solicit agreements from leaving a previous company. We will provide clear guidance and help you plan around these accordingly.
Yes you can! Our platform works just as well for partnered entrepreneurs.
We earn our money via a service charge based on a percentage of revenue generated. So unlike suppliers we really are incentivised to ensure your success!
This varies depending on your situation. If you’re ready and raring to go we can get you fully launched in couple of weeks! We go at your pace though and the majority of businesses we help launch around one to two months to get fully set up (although of course this often coincides with notice periods)
