Discover the many benefits of partnering with FCSA

Opportunities to share content

Your firm’s relevant technical articles or any specific content could be shared on the FCSA website, social media networks or our fortnightly e-newsletter bulleting to reach our members and linked recruitment agencies. You would be able to list your firm as the author and include a link to your website. To reciprocate, FCSA could provide you with relevant technical content for your online marketing, if required.

FCSA events

You would have the opportunity to attend and support any of FCSA’s planned calendar of events.  You would be able to distribute marketing literature and display materials as appropriate to promote your firm. Subject to programme planning, you may be able to provide expert speakers to present and discuss relevant hot topics of interest to the audience.

Access to fresh industry data

FCSA members represent a massive proportion of the temporary UK labour market. FCSA regularly mobilises its members and research associates to produce industry data offering valuable insights, actionable intel, and ‘finger on the pulse’ data within this dynamic marketplace.  As a Business Partner, this industry data will be made available to you, free of charge, as soon as it is released.  Redacted industry data may sometimes be used in information supplied to the government, or in press releases. 

Not for profit

Unlike many compliance assessors offering services in the UK, the FCSA works for the benefit of its members and the wider freelance industry, without any commercial agenda. This is a very important differentiator given that most compliance assessment organisations work towards their own profit.  This suggests that they will be influenced with their own agendas or objectives at the forefront.

Regular updates from us

As a Business Partner, you’ll receive regular updates on relevant industry ‘hot topics’, sector data, polls, forthcoming legislative updates and government consultations helping you to plan, stay up-to-date and be prepared, including inclusion on our fortnightly e-newsletter bulletin mailing list.

Access to our views on sector developments

As the FCSA grows, our industry data will be broken into sectors.  FCSA plans to produce material that is broken down into different geographic regions, with data spread across pay rates, industry sectors, public and private sector splits, etc.  All of this information will be available to FCSA Business Partners, free of charge, and in full.

Use of FCSA Business Partner logo

You will be granted permission to display the FCSA Business Partner logo on your website, email signatures, publicity materials and headed paper.

Source of help and advice

FCSA and its Accredited Members will provide a comprehensive and independent source of help and advice for Business Partners. You will have access to a dedicated support email address and queries directed to this email account will either be answered by FCSA, or by one of the appropriate Accredited Members.

Long-term, sustainable, flexible workforce

FCSA’s purpose is to safeguard the long-term future of the professional freelance sector for the benefit of the UK economy.  We work with the whole supply chain, government and policymakers to help shape the future of the industry.  By partnering with FCSA, you are demonstrating your commitment to the long-term sustainability of the professional contractor workforce.

Other sponsorship opportunities

You will have early notice of any new initiatives where we might be seeking sponsorship e.g. events, publications, training programmes, technical guidance, newsletters.
