Benefits of invoice finance for business services companies

Instant access to working capital

From advertising to recruitment, business services firms operate in competitive markets with ambitious growth plans. Invoice finance bridges the gaps between client payments, letting you focus on what matters: accelerated growth.

Reduce administrative burden

Spend less time chasing invoices. With invoice factoring, we handle collections on your behalf, freeing up working capital and letting your accounting team focus on other tasks.

Improve supplier negotiations

With healthy cash flow, you can settle supplier bills faster and faster payment often means stronger negotiating power, better terms, and preferential rates on your next contract.

"The team at Close Brothers was enjoyable and easy to work with, and always available when needed. The deal wouldn’t have happened without them and we’re very grateful for their expertise and support. This was a great way to structure our first acquisition and we would absolutely look to use this form of financing and Close Brothers for our future acquisitions."

Invoice finance products for the business services sector

Invoice discounting for the business services industry

Some clients prefer to retain control of their collections, leaving the in-house finance team to process invoices as usual. We advance 90% of the value once it's raised, protecting your existing processes while unlocking working capital. Client relationships stay yours and the arrangement remains confidential, making invoice discounting ideal for business services firms seeking a discreet, scalable cash flow solution.

Invoice factoring for the business services industry

We can also manage credit control and collect payments on your behalf. This reduces administrative workload, freeing your team from chasing collections. With invoice factoring, you take back control of your cash flow while we handle the administrative burden in the background.
