Recruitment Agency ROI Calculator

Work out what the five core workflows from our AI Trust & Productivity Sprint could be worth to your agency over 12 months. Every figure below is adjustable, so use your own numbers, not ours.

1 · Your agency
Consultants
Fee earners who would use the workflows day to day
Fully loaded cost per consultant hour
Salary plus NI, pension and overheads, divided by working hours. £25 to £45 is typical for UK consultants
Working weeks per year
After holiday, bank holidays and sickness
Realisation rate
The share of theoretical time saving that actually gets banked. We default to 60% on purpose, because nobody banks 100%
Sprint investment
Standard Sprint £12,000. Pilot price £8,000, a saving of £4,000
Prices are subject to change.

The value proposition
How this works. For each workflow: tasks per consultant per week × minutes saved per task. Totals are multiplied by consultants, working weeks and your realisation rate, then valued at your fully loaded hourly cost. The result is capacity value: consultant time handed back for candidates, clients and placements. It is not a promise of cost cutting, and these figures are estimates to open a conversation, not a contract. The sprint also delivers what this calculator does not price: an AI acceptable use policy, staff safe-use guide, candidate and client data rules and human review standards. That governance work protects the agency whatever the hourly numbers say.
