Get Your £350k Recruitment Agency Loan Today

A £350k recruitment agency loan is typically a term loan: a fixed-value borrowing facility repaid in monthly instalments over an agreed period. Recruitment agencies use it when headcount and activity are growing, but costs such as payroll, advertising and support come before commission and client payments land. It can also fund capacity, like hiring consultants, expanding desk coverage, improving systems or setting up new offices, while you manage the timing gap between invoicing and cash receipts. For many agencies, a term loan brings structure through a predictable repayment plan.

Term loan types for £350k

Senior secured term loan

Often suited to recruitment agencies with trading history and sustainable placement income. This option may require security, such as a debenture, and is underwritten using affordability and credit criteria.

Senior secured term loan

A senior secured term loan is commonly considered for UK incorporated businesses with trading history (often at least 2+ years) and positive or improving cash flow. Lenders usually look for evidence that placement revenue can service monthly repayments. Typical amounts can range from £100,000 to £500,000, so a £350k request may fit depending on affordability. Terms are often 24 to 60 months, and decisions are frequently 2 to 6 weeks where standard review and security documentation are required.

Unsecured term loan

Designed for SMEs without required security, focusing more heavily on credit history and operating cash flow. It can suit agencies that have a clear plan to repay from stable trading.

Unsecured term loan

An unsecured term loan can be a fit for UK SMEs where security is not required or is limited. Eligibility typically centres on credit history, turnover and profitability, plus demonstrated ability to repay. Typical amounts range from £25,000 to £350,000, with terms often 12 to 48 months. Pricing is commonly higher than secured lending. Decision times can be 1 to 4 weeks for straightforward cases, with longer review where more detailed underwriting is needed.

Asset-backed or invoice-informed

Where receivables evidence is strong, some lenders tailor term loan structures using receivables information to assess affordability. This can support financing when payment timing lags.

Asset-backed or invoice-informed

Some lenders structure term finance using receivables information to understand affordability, even if it is not classic invoice finance. Eligibility usually depends on identifiable and saleable receivables history, manageable bad debt levels and accurate reporting. Typical amounts can be £100,000 to £600,000, so £350k may be feasible with strong receivables evidence. Terms may run 24 to 72 months, with decision times often 3 to 8 weeks due to deeper evidence review focused on debtor and cash collection performance.
