TE Recruit™ is recruiting software built specifically for staffing and recruiting agencies that want to simplify operations, strengthen candidate and client relationships, and make more placements.
Developed by Top Echelon, a trusted recruiting technology provider for nearly four decades, TE Recruit combines an applicant tracking system (ATS) and recruiting CRM in one intuitive platform. Teams can manage candidates, clients, contacts, companies, job orders, pipelines, communications, tasks, and placement activity from a single workspace.
TE Recruit helps recruiters reduce manual work and stay focused on revenue-generating activity with customizable workflows, email sequences, automation, resume parsing, candidate sourcing, job posting, activity tracking, dashboards, and reporting. AI-powered tools help teams work faster, including job description generation, search assistance, and AI People Search, which uses semantic search to find relevant candidates based on meaning and context, not only exact keyword matches. AI People Search is available with TE Recruit Pro.
Built-in integrations connect TE Recruit with email, job boards, calling and texting platforms, and other tools used across the recruiting workflow. An open API, available with TE Recruit Pro, gives firms additional flexibility to connect systems, share data, and build custom workflows.
TE Recruit is designed for independent recruiters, executive search firms, and small to midsize staffing agencies that need powerful recruiting technology without unnecessary complexity. Guided onboarding, training, and responsive customer support are included, helping teams adopt the platform quickly and get long-term value from their investment.
For firms that want to expand beyond their own database and job pipeline, TE Network™ is available as an optional add-on. TE Network is Top Echelon’s split-placement recruiter network, giving members access to additional candidates, job orders, and collaboration opportunities. TE Recruit and TE Network can be used together through the integrated Network Feed for maximum impact, or either solution can be used on its own.
With intuitive workflows, modern AI and automation, strong integrations, predictable pricing, and support from a team that understands recruiting, TE Recruit helps agencies improve productivity, increase visibility, and grow without adding unnecessary software complexity.

Breathe (also known as Breathe HR/BreatheHR) is a UK HR platform, founded in 2012, for small and medium-sized businesses. It brings people records, leave, documents, performance, reporting and compliance into one place, replacing scattered spreadsheets and disconnected tools.
What's included
Core HR: secure central employee records and documents, holiday and leave requests, sickness and absence tracking, self-service, e-signatures, performance management (goals, feedback, one-to-ones, reviews), reporting and analytics.
Optional modules:
- e-Learning: training management, UK-specific courses, completion tracking
- Health and Safety: risk assessments, incident reports, certifications, compliance evidence
- Recruitment: hiring workflows, job ads, candidate tracking - Expenses: claims, receipts, manager approval, spend tracking
- Rota, Time and Attendance: shifts, availability, hours, attendance
In development: an AI Assistant answering HR and policy questions from company information. Payroll planned for late 2026.
Problems solved
- Scattered data → one accurate central record
- Chasing approvals → self-service, e-signatures, shared workflows
- Lean HR teams → start with Core HR, add modules as needs grow
Result: less duplicate entry and chasing, clearer visibility, more manager and employee involvement.
Who it's for
Best fit: UK SMEs with up to 200 employees moving HR off spreadsheets, e.g. start-ups, charities, healthcare, retail, education and professional services, especially with lean or shared HR roles.
Evaluate carefully: 200+ employees, or needs for multinational payroll, complex global compliance, extensive custom workflows or enterprise workforce planning. Not a global enterprise HCM suite.

- From £24/month per organisation, no long-term contracts or hidden fees
- Free 14-day trial, no obligation

Bottom line: a flexible, self-service way for UK SMEs to organise HR and cut admin, with room to grow into recruitment, learning, safety, expenses, rotas and payroll (late 2026).
