Accreditations & Affiliates

FCSA

To further showcase our commitment to compliance within the contractor accountancy and payroll sector, Churchill Knight & Associates Ltd and Churchill Knight Umbrella have both been awarded FCSA (Freelancer & Contractor Services Association) accreditation.

In order to attain this well-respected and prestigious accreditation, both companies have undergone a rigorous audit and assessment process, conducted by independent accountancy and legal professionals. Now that we have passed this process, all of the gathered information is shared openly with HMRC. This guarantees full transparency with all of our procedures.

As FCSA accredited organisations, both Churchill Knight & Associates Ltd and Churchill Knight Umbrella have proven our internal procedures are in line with the strict FCSA Codes of Compliance.

SafeRec

Churchill Knight is proud to be a SafeRec Certified Umbrella Company. SafeRec is a leading provider of AI-powered payslip auditing software that has transformed how umbrella companies showcase transparency within the supply chain. As a SafeRec Certified Umbrella Company, every payslip we process is audited in real-time, and a report is immediately emailed to our employees. This allows them to check that we have processed their payroll compliantly and transparently and that no malpractice or unlabeled deductions have occurred. Our umbrella employees can also log in to Payslip Buddy and view historic payslip audits.

Churchill Knight has always prioritised compliance, and SafeRec helps us prove that we’re paying our employees correctly, allowing them total peace of mind. This level of transparency has never been seen in the sector, and we’re delighted to offer it to our employees so they can focus on their temporary assignments with the confidence they are being paid as they should be (PAYE).
