Built for Staffing Agencies

Your agency runs on
relationships.
Let Subshift handle the rest.

Every shift placement generates revenue. Every unfilled shift erodes a client relationship. Subshift automates the entire cycle — from first request to final invoice — so your team can focus on what actually grows the business.

No credit card required · Clients & workers always free · Cancel any time

😤

Does this morning sound familiar?

It's 7:15am. You've just had a cancellation for an 8am shift at your biggest client. You start calling down your list — voicemail, voicemail, "not available today", voicemail. The client rings asking for an update. You're 40 minutes in, you've missed your own breakfast, and you've got three other open shifts to fill today. This is Tuesday.

This is what Subshift was built to eliminate.

Before & after Subshift

Here's how the same Monday morning looks.

Before Subshift

Worker cancels at 7am
30–45 mins calling down your list, hoping someone picks up. Half the time you go through the whole list.
Client needs cover
Client emails, you miss it, they call, you scramble — then spend 20 minutes updating them with nothing.
Compliance before placement
Manual spreadsheet check, if it's up to date, if you remember. One lapsed cert away from a serious incident.
Timesheet at end of shift
Paper form or WhatsApp photo. Then someone re-enters the data. Then disputes. Then chasing.
Generating invoices
Half a day every Friday. Exports, formatting, emailing clients, chasing sign-off. Exhausting.

After Subshift

Worker cancels at 7am
Shift automatically broadcast to all qualified, available, compliant workers. Filled in minutes. You see a notification.
Client needs cover
Client raises the shift in their portal. You're notified. It's already being filled before you even read the message.
Compliance before placement
Automatic. Workers with lapsed documents are blocked from shifts before you ever see them as an option.
Timesheet at end of shift
Worker submits digitally. Client approves in one click. Data flows straight to invoicing. No one re-keys anything.
Generating invoices
One click. Invoices auto-generated from approved timesheets. Sent automatically. Done in minutes.

A day in the life

Here's how a typical morning changes

7:05am
Healthcare Assistant cancels — 8am shift at Northfield Care Home
Subshift detects the cancellation and immediately broadcasts the shift to 12 qualified, available, compliant workers in the area. Three push notifications sent within 30 seconds.
7:14am
Shift accepted
Kezia, an HCA with a valid DBS, right-to-work, and moving & handling cert, taps "Accept" on her phone. The shift is filled. The client portal updates automatically. The agency is notified by email.
7:15am
You arrive at your desk
You see one notification: "Shift filled — Northfield Care Home, 8am." You didn't make a single call. Your coffee is still hot.
4:30pm
Kezia submits her timesheet digitally
The shift manager at Northfield approves it in their client portal. Subshift flags it for invoicing.
End of week
Invoice generated automatically
Every approved timesheet from this week is compiled into a formatted invoice and sent to Northfield. Payroll for Kezia is calculated and added to this week's run.

🛡️ Compliance

Sleep soundly. Compliance is enforced automatically.

One non-compliant placement can end a client relationship, trigger a regulatory investigation, or expose your agency to serious liability. Subshift removes human error from the equation entirely.

Workers with lapsed documents are automatically blocked from shifts before you ever see them as a match. The system enforces your compliance rules — without you having to remember.

  • 🚫 Non-compliant workers automatically excluded from matching
  • 📄 Automated document expiry tracking with advance alerts
  • ✅ Right-to-work verification built into the worker profile
  • 🔍 Full compliance audit trail for CQC and other inspections

🕐 Timesheets

Hours tracked. Disputes killed at source.

Paper timesheets get lost. WhatsApp photos get disputed. Email threads get ignored. Digital timesheets submitted through Subshift are timestamped, geo-tagged, and tied directly to the confirmed shift.

The client approves, you see it immediately, and the hours flow straight into invoicing and payroll. No re-keying. No errors. No chasing.

  • 📱 Workers submit timesheets from their phone at shift end
  • ✅ One-click client approval via their portal
  • 🔗 Approved hours feed directly into invoicing and payroll

What agencies are saying

"We used to spend 2–3 hours every morning filling last-minute gaps. Now I get a notification when it's done. I don't know how we managed before."
SM
Sarah Mitchell
Operations Manager, Meridian Healthcare Staffing
"The compliance piece alone is worth it. We had a near-miss with a lapsed DBS. With Subshift, that worker is blocked automatically — I don't even see them as an option."
JO
James Okafor
Director, Apex Nursing Solutions
"Invoicing used to take us half a day every Friday. Now it takes fifteen minutes. That time goes into business development instead."

One missed shift costs more than a month's subscription.

At £199/mo, a single prevented missed shift pays for Subshift. At £499/mo, the time you save on invoicing alone covers the cost. The agencies asking "can we afford it?" are the ones who can't afford not to.
