Three weeks
or a few days?
Most yards still hire crews through an agency, a WhatsApp group, or a stack of dog-eared contacts. There's a faster route — same trade, no markup.
The agency route
- ×15–25% placement fee on top of every day rate
- ×Hours hunting tickets & insurance over email and WhatsApp
- ×Chasing renewal dates manually on a spreadsheet
- ×Limited to whoever the agency happens to know
- ×No reputation history, no platform recourse
- ×Lost productivity from unfilled positions
The ArbLink route
- ▸Flat £19.99/mo (or £199.99/yr) — no per-hire fees, ever
- ▸Every certificate uploaded, dated & tracked in one place
- ▸Renewal alerts 30 days out — for them, for you
- ▸UK climbers searchable by ticket, postcode, sector
- ▸Ratings, references & CPD travel with the worker
- ▸Build a roster you can re-hire in two taps
From job post
to hire in
four steps.
The intended ArbLink flow — from publishing a job to having the right crew booked. Here's what that will look like at launch.
Set up your business
Company name, logo, accreditations (CHAS, Lantra, ISO — whatever you've got). Upload public liability + employer's liability. All on file, dated and ready to share.
Post a job from template
Pick a sector template — utility, rail, highways, commercial, domestic, forestry. Required tickets, location radius, dates, day-rate band. Publish — your job is on the live feed within 60 seconds.
Review qualified candidates
Applications come pre-filtered — only climbers whose tickets actually match. Every profile shows live cert status, insurance expiry, CPD activity, past ratings and references.
Message, hire, save to roster
Chat in-platform, agree day rate, confirm. Save the crew to your trusted roster — re-hiring next month takes two taps. Rate them after the job; they rate you back.
Pays for itself
after one hire.
Move the sliders. Estimate based on typical UK agency placement fees of 20% against ArbLink Business at £199.99/year. Indicative only — your numbers will differ.

way you run
a yard.
A generic jobs board can't tell a CS30 from a CS41. ArbLink can, and so can every filter, alert and dashboard in it.
Smart job templates
Pre-built for the six UK arb sectors. Required tickets, day-rate guides, common kit — pre-filled and editable. Most jobs go live in under 3 minutes.
Cert-aware candidate search
Search UK climbers by ticket, postcode radius, day rate, equipment owned, availability window. Save searches as ongoing alerts.
Compliance dashboard
Single view of every ticket, policy and LOLER record across hired crews. Renewal alerts 30 days before expiry; export for HSE audits.
Trusted roster & re-hire
Mark a crew as trusted after a good job. Re-hire on the next post in two taps. Build a private network that travels with your business.
Team accounts with roles
Invite ops, supervisors, finance, owners. Granular permissions per role — your bookkeeper sees invoices, not the hiring inbox.
Performance & CRM analytics
Time-to-hire, cost-per-hire, savings vs. agency benchmark, geospatial network map. Quarterly export to PDF; weekly digest by email.
One plan.
Everything
in.
One flat £19.99/mo subscription. No per-hire fees, no tiers, no upsells. Pay annually and get ~17% off — every feature in every account.
No commissions.
No per-hire fees.
No tiers.
Most platforms either skim a percentage of every day rate or lock the features that actually matter behind an enterprise tier. ArbLink is one price — and it doesn't go up when you hire more crews.
- ×0% placement fee — agencies charge 15–25%
- ×0 per-hire cost — hire ten crews or a hundred
- ×0 add-on tiers — every feature in the £19.99
- ×0 setup or onboarding charge
- ×0 long-term contract — cancel any month
