Compliant & Risk Free Umbrella Solutions for Agencies
Introducing Belgravia UmbrellaBelgravia Umbrella has been providing payroll solutions to contractors since 2013. Over the years, we have partnered with recruitment agencies across every sector.
We know the pressures of recruiting temporary workers along with the challenges consultants face daily and we know exactly what you need from an umbrella/payroll provider, to make your life easier. This is why consultants refer their contractors to us, assignment after assignment, year after year.
Differentiation is difficult within the umbrella world. There are a lot of providers out there and the take home pay for the contractor should be almost identical. As a result, we ensure that the service level we provide, both to yourselves and the contractors you refer, is second to none.
This increased level of service does not come at the cost of compromising on compliance. We often see competitors making bold claims of being ‘the most compliant’ umbrella company. There is no such thing. An umbrella provider is either compliant or they are not. We are compliant in every way. We are regulated, regularly audited and only provide solutions that adhere to both the letter and spirit of the law. We would not be here today, years later, if that was not the case.
We hope you find the information within this brochure helpful in deciding whether to choose Belgravia Umbrella. We are proud of what we do and would love the opportunity to work with you in the future.

Legislation RoundupThe last few years have seen unprecedented levels of change for contractor payroll. Belgravia Umbrella adapted our systems and processes seamlessly throughout so that agencies:
• Face no prospect of transfer of debt under Managed Service Company (MSC) Legislation
• Comply with Agency Workers Regulations (AWR) by paying the correct ‘comparator’ rate
• Don’t need to make Real Time Information submissions to HMRC – we do
• Have no liability in respect of either Offshore Intermediary or False Self Employment legislation
• Avoid the considerable burden of administration surrounding Auto-Enrolment Pensions
• Don’t fall foul of the Criminal Finance Act – Full tax and NI deductions made to HMRC
Umbrella Solution VariantsWe offer two solutions. Contractors are free to select which they prefer or alternatively you can elect which variant you prefer your contractors to use.
The contractors will be employed on a full time permanent basis by their own company and able to claim, where allowable, expenses. Limited solutions are provided by our sister company BlackStone Accountancy
Limited
Contractors are employed on a full time permanent basis by Belgravia Umbrella.
