Obligations of the Employer

  • The Employer agrees that Recruitment Agencies have 6 months CV ownership over submitted candidates if feedback is not updated and/or a duplicate is not raised within 48 hours of CV submission and the candidate is recruited within 6 months from the date of CV submission.
  • The Employer agrees to notify Us immediately when an offer of employment has been accepted by a Candidate, including updating candidate DOJ and offer amount on the portal where applicable, so that the correct invoice can be raised.

  • The Employer is responsible for checking references, validating qualifications, confirming work rights, medical requirements and any other suitability checks required by law or role.
  • The Employer shall use best endeavours to keep confidential any confidential information of any Candidate, including CVs and related application information.
  • If a Candidate initially rejected by the Employer is later employed within six months of initial introduction, the Employer remains responsible for the Placement Fee.
  • If the Employer introduces the Candidate, directly or indirectly, to another person, firm, company, subsidiary, or associated entity, and that party engages the Candidate within six months of the initial introduction, the Employer will remain responsible for the applicable fees.
  • The Employer consents to the disclosure by Us to Recruiters and Candidates of information relating to the Employer which the Employer has provided to Us.
  • In the event of non-payment by the Employer of the Placement Fee, the Employer agrees that We may assign the debt relating to such non-payment to the Recruiter.
  • If an Employer claims prior ownership of a Candidate CV from another source, the Employer may be required to provide reasonable supporting evidence. Any such matters will be reviewed, and a determination will be made based on the information available. The outcome of this review will be considered final.
  • The Employer shall inform Recruiting Hub if a Recruiter contacts it directly, online or offline, to work around or circumvent the Marketplace Services.
  • If the Employer deletes its account, Recruiting Hub may retain relevant submission data for up to 6 months to protect platform ownership rights and commercial obligations attached to those submissions.

Obligations of the Recruiter / Recruitment Agency

  • The Recruiter warrants that they are a professionally trained recruiter, are suitable to act as an Employment Agency and agree to comply with relevant employment agency regulations.
  • When engaged with an Employer on the Marketplace, the Recruiter shall not use the Employer’s company name or brand publicly when advertising the Employer’s vacancy and searching for Candidates.
  • The Recruiter will use reasonable endeavours to introduce suitable Candidates who meet the Employer’s vacancy specification.
  • The Recruiter agrees to properly screen Candidates and obtain confirmation from the Candidate that they are willing to work in the position before submitting the CV.
  • Recruiting Hub does not guarantee the contents of an Employer’s job posting. Recruiters are responsible for validating job details before sourcing candidates.

  • The Recruiter agrees not to directly or indirectly work around, avoid, circumvent or otherwise exploit the Marketplace Services or Our Site with the intent or effect of depriving Us of due compensation, handling fees or placement fees.
  • The Recruiter shall not directly approach Employers introduced through Recruiting Hub for a period of 12 months other than through permitted communications linked to the posted vacancy.
  • If a Recruiter is found to have circumvented the platform, the Recruiter may be liable to pay specified penalties depending on the applicable country entity and fee model.
  • Candidates are represented by the first Recruiter to submit the Candidate through Our Site, provided the Recruiter had permission from the Candidate to submit them.
  • Where a prior-source dispute arises, Recruiting Hub will investigate and determine whether a Placement Fee is due. Our decision shall be final.
  • Provided the Employer is not already aware of the Candidate and evidence supports that position, the Recruiter shall have ownership of that Candidate for six months from first submission.
  • If the Recruiter deletes their agency account, they may lose all monetary benefits relating to submissions made during the last 6 months, and Recruiting Hub may retain transfer copies of the submission data.

Placement Fees, Contract Terms and Replacement

Placement Fee for Permanent Recruitment

Where a Candidate is submitted via the Marketplace and is successfully appointed in a posted Vacancy, or within any other role within the Employer’s organisation or group, We will invoice the Employer on behalf of the Agency upon confirmation of candidate acceptance.

The Placement Fee is generally payable within 30 days. If the Candidate does not commence the engagement, the Placement Fee shall not be payable and, if already paid, may be refunded and/or credited in line with agreed terms.

The Employer will remain liable for the Placement Fee in respect of a Candidate if within 6 months of introduction:

  • the Employer employs that Candidate on a permanent or temporary basis; or
  • the Employer initially rejects the Candidate but later employs or engages them; or
  • the Employer refers the Candidate to another entity in its group and that entity employs or engages the Candidate.

VMS Contract Roles – Recurring Fees and Candidate Protection

Contract roles may operate through an hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, end-rate, cost-plus, markup or other agreed structure. The Vacancy-specific commercial terms displayed on the Marketplace or otherwise accepted in writing form part of this Agreement.

Recurring fee: where a Candidate introduced through Recruiting Hub is engaged on a Contract Assignment, the agreed Recruiting Hub fee/margin and any agreed Recruiter/Vendor fee shall accrue for every approved or billable unit of work throughout the entire Assignment. This includes the original term and every extension, renewal, option period, continuation, re-engagement, reassignment or substantially connected subsequent engagement, unless Recruiting Hub expressly agrees otherwise in writing.

Percentage-margin model: recurring Contract Assignment fees are not based on a fixed USD 6 per hour unless that exact amount has been expressly agreed for a particular Vacancy. The normal commercial basis is the agreed End Rate / Billable Rate and the agreed recurring RecruitingHub percentage margin. RecruitingHub's recurring fee for each approved billable unit is calculated by applying the agreed percentage margin to the applicable End Rate / Billable Rate. Where the agreed rate is expressly stated to be inclusive of RecruitingHub's margin, the RecruitingHub margin is contained within that rate and the remaining amount forms the applicable Candidate/Agency/base share. Where the agreed rate is expressly stated to be exclusive of RecruitingHub's margin, the agreed RecruitingHub percentage margin is added to the applicable base rate to determine the Client's pre-tax billable amount. Any Agency/Vendor share, Account Manager share or other agreed allocation shall be governed by the Vacancy-specific commercial terms, signed agreement, order form or other written commercial record.

Monthly reporting and invoicing: the Employer/client shall provide, or procure the provision of, approved timesheets or a monthly statement showing the Candidate, period, hours/days or other units worked, applicable End Rate / Billable Rate, agreed recurring margin percentage and sufficient information to calculate recurring fees and any Agency/Vendor distribution. Unless different written terms apply, Recruiting Hub may invoice monthly and invoices are due within 30 days.

No avoidance by restructuring: changing the Candidate’s title, department, location, worksite, payroll provider, intermediary, subcontractor, affiliate, end client or contractual route does not extinguish the recurring fee where the Engagement results from the original introduction.

Extensions and survival: recurring fees survive expiry or termination of the User’s account, the Vacancy or these Terms in respect of Candidates introduced before such expiry or termination, and remain payable for the full duration of the relevant Assignment and its extensions or continuations.

Direct hire / conversion: if an Introduced Candidate is hired directly, transferred to another supplier, converted to permanent employment or otherwise engaged in a manner that ends or bypasses the recurring fee, the applicable transfer/conversion fee becomes payable unless Recruiting Hub agrees otherwise in writing. Unless different Vacancy-specific terms apply, the default transfer fee is 10% of first-year annualised gross remuneration.

Records and audit: the Employer/client and, where relevant, the Recruiter/Vendor shall retain records reasonably sufficient to verify fees for at least the period required by applicable law and, in any event, for not less than 24 months after the final payment relating to the Assignment. On reasonable notice and where Recruiting Hub reasonably believes a material underpayment has occurred, Recruiting Hub may require supporting timesheets, payment statements or equivalent records limited to verifying amounts due. Any audit shall be conducted reasonably and subject to confidentiality obligations.

No unrestricted pay-when-paid: unless expressly stated in Vacancy-specific terms accepted by the affected party, an Employer/client’s obligation to pay Recruiting Hub is not conditional upon receipt of payment from its own customer or end client. A Recruiter/Vendor’s entitlement to distribution by Recruiting Hub remains subject to the specific payment terms applicable to that Vacancy.

Bench Contract Roles

Commission is recurring throughout the entire contract duration. The IT Vendor's consultant is engaged directly by the client through RecruitingHub. The standard commission structure is: IT Vendor – 80% and RecruitingHub (RH) – 20% of the agreed contract margin throughout the duration of the engagement.

Contract to Hire Transfer Fee

Where a contractor is converted into a permanent employee, a transfer fee may apply, generally ranging between 10% and 15% of the candidate’s offered first-year annual salary, unless otherwise agreed.

RPO Services

RPO services may involve a retainer fee arrangement, often including an upfront portion of the projected placement fee and an account management layer to support volume hiring.

Free Replacement

The Replacement Period shall run from the Candidate Start Date and may be 30, 60 or 90 days, or any other period agreed in principle with the Employer.

The Employer may be entitled to a one-time free replacement, provided:

  • the Placement Fee has been paid within 30 days unless otherwise agreed in writing;
  • termination was not caused by redundancy, restructuring, pregnancy, injury, ill health, age, race, gender, sexual orientation or disability;
  • termination did not arise from unfair or bad-faith hiring intentions by the Employer; and
  • the Employer gives notice to Us within the agreed notice window, usually 7 days.
Replacement Window Replacement Benefit
30 / 60 / 90 days or as agreed in principle One-time Free Replacement Guarantee

If the Employer fails to pay the Placement Fee within 30 days from invoice date, the Employer may lose the benefit of replacement provisions.

Recruiter Fee / Handling Fee

Upon successful Placement, We may invoice the Employer on behalf of the Agency for the Placement Fee specified on the Vacancy. We reserve the right to deduct Our Handling Fee before passing the Recruiter’s share onward.

Where applicable, funds may be held during the agreed replacement period before release in line with the replacement schedule.

Termination and Recruiter-On-Demand Services

Recruiter Termination

We may terminate or suspend any and all services and access to Our Site immediately, without prior notice or liability, if you breach any of the terms or conditions of the agreement. Upon termination of your account, your right to use the services and access Our Site will immediately cease.

All provisions of the agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability. If we withdraw access to the Marketplace because these Terms have been breached, no refund will be payable by us.

Recruiter-On-Demand Services to Employers

“Hire a Recruiter” is a fixed-fee service payable by an Employer to hire a recruiter from our marketplace to fill vacancies for a monthly fixed cost payable in advance using our online payment methods.

Subscription fees, plans, usage benefits and pricing may be varied from time to time. Upgrades may take immediate effect, while downgrades may apply from the next calendar month. We shall be under no obligation to refund any subscription fee if cancelled unless specifically stated otherwise.

WhatsApp notifications are intended to support your use of the Recruiting Hub platform and may be sent using approved WhatsApp Business templates or other permitted WhatsApp Business communication methods.

Contract Assignments, Non-Circumvention, Payment and Compliance

Introduced Candidates and Non-Circumvention

An Employer, Recruiter, Vendor or other User must not directly or indirectly bypass Recruiting Hub in relation to an Introduced Candidate, Vacancy, Client, end client or commercial opportunity originating through Recruiting Hub. Prohibited circumvention includes engaging through an affiliate, related company, alternative staffing supplier, subcontractor, intermediary, payroll company or other arrangement where the purpose or practical effect is to avoid fees properly due to Recruiting Hub.

Where circumvention occurs, Recruiting Hub may recover the fees and margin that would reasonably have become payable had the transaction remained within the agreed commercial structure, together with interest and recoverable enforcement costs, subject always to applicable law. This is intended to protect Recruiting Hub's legitimate commercial interest and is not intended to operate as a penalty.

Payment, Disputes and Late Payment

Unless different written terms apply, invoices are due within 30 days of invoice date, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction except where required by law. A genuine invoice dispute must be notified promptly in writing with reasonable detail; undisputed amounts remain payable when due.

Overdue business-to-business amounts may carry interest and reasonable debt-recovery costs at the maximum rate permitted by the law governing the relevant transaction. Where UK law applies and the statutory regime is available, Recruiting Hub may rely on the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 and related regulations.

Taxes and Withholding

Fees are exclusive of VAT, GST, sales tax or similar indirect taxes unless stated otherwise. If a payer is legally required to make a tax withholding, it shall provide the official withholding certificate or equivalent evidence promptly and shall not make deductions that are not required by applicable law. The parties shall reasonably cooperate in applying any available treaty relief or lawful reduced withholding procedure.

Government and Regulated-Sector Opportunities

Users working on government, public-sector, healthcare, financial-services, defence, education or other regulated opportunities must comply with all laws, procurement rules, professional standards, licensing, credentialing, background-screening, sanctions, anti-bribery, anti-kickback and conflict-of-interest requirements applicable to their role.

Recruiting Hub's recruitment, marketplace, sourcing, technology or supplier fees compensate legitimate services and Candidate supply/introduction activity. No User may use Recruiting Hub or describe any fee as payment for improper influence, lobbying, securing preferential government treatment or improperly obtaining a public contract. For United States federal opportunities, Users must comply with applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation requirements, including restrictions relating to contingent fees and improper influence where applicable.

Candidate Employment, Payroll and Worker Classification

Unless Recruiting Hub expressly agrees in a signed contract to employ or payroll a worker, the party employing, engaging or supplying the Candidate is solely responsible for worker classification, wages, overtime, payroll taxes, benefits, leave, workers' compensation, immigration/work authorisation, insurance, workplace safety and all other employer or staffing-supplier obligations. Nothing displayed on a Vacancy transfers those obligations to Recruiting Hub.

Professional and Sector-Specific Checks

For healthcare, engineering, finance, education, legal, government, defence and other regulated roles, the Employer/client remains responsible for determining and verifying the licences, registrations, certifications, clearances, insurances and fitness requirements necessary for the Engagement. Recruiters must not represent a Candidate as cleared or licensed unless they have reasonable evidence supporting that representation.

Anti-Bribery, Sanctions and Ethical Conduct

Users shall comply with applicable anti-bribery, anti-corruption, sanctions, anti-money-laundering and modern-slavery/human-trafficking laws. No User shall offer, promise, request or accept an improper payment or advantage in connection with the Marketplace or any Engagement.

Survival

Accrued payment obligations, recurring Contract Assignment fees, Candidate-introduction protections, non-circumvention obligations, audit and record-verification rights, confidentiality, intellectual-property provisions, indemnities, limitations of liability, dispute provisions and any terms which by their nature are intended to continue shall survive suspension, account deletion, expiry or termination.

Applicable Law, Jurisdiction, Copyright and Cookies

Applicable Law

Unless a signed agreement, order form or Vacancy-specific commercial term expressly provides otherwise, the governing law and forum shall follow the applicable Recruiting Hub contracting entity: Recruiting Hub Ltd / Recruiting Hub International Ltd – laws of England and Wales, courts of England and Wales; Recruiting Hub US LLC – laws of the State of Delaware, subject to applicable United States federal law, with courts having competent jurisdiction in Delaware; Recruiting Hub India Pvt Ltd – laws of India, with courts having competent jurisdiction at the company’s registered-office jurisdiction; and Recruiting Hub Tech FZCO – applicable laws of the UAE and the competent courts/forum applicable to that entity. Mandatory laws that cannot lawfully be excluded continue to apply.

Jurisdictional Issues / Sale in Countries Where We Have Legal Entities Only

Availability of a service in a country does not constitute a representation that every service, employment model, payroll arrangement or Candidate Engagement is lawful there. Each User is responsible for complying with mandatory local laws applicable to its activities, and Recruiting Hub may restrict a service where legal, regulatory, sanctions, licensing, tax or operational requirements make provision inappropriate.
