How the desk runs
One platform, from the first call to the invoice.
Source across every desk
The market is small and relationships are everything, so the consultants already on your record are the whole business. One shared CRM, switchable between perm, temp and contract, with LinkedIn profiles coming into the record in a click.
One record, three placement types
A temp booking today and a permanent shortlist tomorrow run on the same record — the consultant you covered a shift with is the same candidate the perm desk puts forward.
Book the one who is ready
An agency needs a billing consultant for a new desk. Booking Desk shows who is available and cleared, so it is filled on the call, and permanent offers are tracked on the same record.
Today, across every agency
Timeline puts the day's bookings across all agencies in one view. What the agency is judging is whether the consultant can bill on their own desk quickly, and the gaps show before anyone has to ring.
Timesheets and approval
Agencies approve online and scanned timesheets are read automatically, feeding straight into pay and billing.
Every desk in one live view
PAYE for permanent placements, with fee agreements held on the placement, from approved hours. Dashman puts placement fees, pipeline by client and where offers stall side by side — targets against actuals, without a spreadsheet in the middle.
Checks and clearances
On the record before anyone is placed
Billing history, references and restrictive covenants sit on the candidate record, so a consultant is put forward on evidence rather than assertion.

Questions
Multi-Desk Rec2Rec recruitment software questions.
Can one system run perm, temp and contract rec2rec desks?
Yes. All three placement types sit on one shared record, and the desk switches between them without re-keying the candidate or the client into a second system.
Do the desks share the same database?
One CRM holds every consultant and agency, so a candidate placed by the temp desk is the same record the perm desk shortlists from.
How is pay handled across the desks?
PAYE, umbrella and limited arrangements all run from the hours approved on the timesheet, through one approved workflow, into invoicing.
Can we see every desk together?
Dashman shows temp fill-rate, permanent fees and contract margin side by side in one view, rather than a report per desk.
What checks does a rec2rec placement need?
Billing history, references and restrictive covenants sit on the candidate record, so a consultant is put forward on evidence rather than assertion. The desk holds references confirmed on the worker record, restrictive covenant position held on the candidate record, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts, qualifications and billing history on the record.
