Everything between the timesheet and the margin

Paid & Billed covers the weekly cycle of a contract desk: running pay and bill, reading the numbers behind it, keeping contractors working and filling the next job.

Take the hassle out of running pay and bill

Timesheets come in, pay runs go out and invoices land in your accounts software, without a spreadsheet in between. Your team steps in only when a decision is needed.

  • Missing timesheets chased for youReminders go out automatically, and anything still missing before payroll cut-off is clearly flagged.
  • One-click invoicingApproved timesheets become invoices in Xero, Sage or QuickBooks, with the PO and timesheet attached.
  • Ltd and umbrella contractors in one pay runSelf-bill invoices for Ltd companies and assignment payments for umbrellas, with approved hours for PAYE temps ready to hand to your payroll provider.

Actionable insights for growing your runner book

See which placements, clients and consultants are adding margin, and which are losing it, week by week. Every figure is exact commissionable margin after holiday pay and employer costs.

  • Runner book growthLive contractors and the weekly margin they earn over time.
  • Net new marginMargin added by new placements, redeployments and rate rises, less margin lost when contracts end or rates fall.
  • Clients and cashRunners, billing, money owed and time to pay for each client, plus a cashflow forecast.

Make redeployments easy

  • Ending contracts flagged earlyContracts are flagged 28 days before they end, with the margin at stake.
  • Extend or redeploy in two clicksEvery contractor detail carries over: their company, bank details, right to work and rate history.
  • Redeployment rate, trackedSee how many contractors you kept working when their contract ended.

Your best candidates are often contractors you've already placed. Paid & Billed checks every open job against everyone on your books and shows you who's free.

  • Matched on skills, ranked by availabilityEach contractor's skills are checked against the job description, then ranked by availability.
  • Shortlist and email in one goPick the people you want and check their availability with a single email.
