Recruiters recommend the number one umbrella company that puts employees first
If you need to recommend an umbrella company to a contractor, you can do yourself a favour, too. That's because, by recommending Parasol, you're recommending the people who provided the longest period of furlough support, out of all umbrella companies throughout 2020. And that's only part of how we support the nation's workers.
Why more recruiters are choosing Parasol
As a recruiter, you know it can be tough for contractors. We know it's been one of the toughest times, ever - and that's why contractor support is in our DNA.

A good recruitment experience
means loyalty to youOnce a contractor experiences the Parasol difference, they won’t look back. And because, their working lives become easier, more profitable and in many cases, more productive, they won’t forget you, the recruiter who recommended us.
