We are incredibly proud to announce that Thrivr is now an official Business Partner of the FCSA.
This partnership is a huge milestone for us, but more importantly, it is a win for the community we serve. We started Thrivr because we recognised that the Recruitment and Umbrella sectors have unique requirements that traditional benefits platforms were not always designed to meet. The modern flexible workforce moves at a different pace, and businesses in this space need a partner built specifically for their scale and their specific business needs.
That is why we built Thrivr. We wanted to create a platform that prioritises the unique nature of the contingent market and provides a high quality experience that grows alongside your business. Partnering with the FCSA is the natural next step in our mission to support this vital sector.
Chris Bryce, FCSA Chief Executive, said:
“Thrivr understands the contractor workforce from the inside out, and that shows in what they’ve built. We’re pleased to welcome them as an FCSA Business Partner and confident their platform will add genuine value for our members and the workers they support. This kind of partnership is what FCSA membership is about: raising standards across the sector, and making sure that counts for contractors in their day-to-day working lives.”
Compliance is the Crucial Baseline. Value is the Future
In 2026, compliance is no longer a differentiator, it is the new normal. With the Fair Work Agency and Joint & Several Liability (JSL) shifting the industry’s risk profile, being compliant is the bare minimum.
The real question for the industry’s leaders is: Once you’ve proved your compliance, what’s next?
Partnering with the FCSA reinforces our commitment to answering that question. We provide the health, wellbeing, and lifestyle perks that contractors deserve, delivered through a platform that understands the unique pressures of the flexible workforce.
What This Means for FCSA Members
This partnership is designed to help FCSA members move “Beyond the Payslip” without adding to their administrative burden.
- Contractor-Centric Care: A provider that understands the nuances of the contingent market. Our perks are tailored specifically for flexible workers.
- Compliance Done. Value Next: You’ve done the hard work to achieve your FCSA accreditation. Thrivr helps you leverage that trust by adding a high-quality service layer that rewards your contractors every single day.
- Built to Scale: Our infrastructure is designed to grow as you do. Whether you have 700 or 20,000 contractors, Thrivr integrates with your existing payroll portals and systems.
- True Flexibility: We don’t believe in plug and play. If it doesn’t fit your brand or business, you can tailor your benefits, add your own local suppliers, and maintain full control over your platform’s look and feel.
- Our Expertise: We aren’t outsiders. Our team has experience in this space. We know the industry, we know the challenges, and we understand what this market needs to thrive.
A Platform Built for the Deskless Workforce
We know that for a contractor, time is money. That’s why Thrivr isn’t just another login. It’s a native, app-led experience designed to fit into the pocket of a busy professional.
- 24/7 Virtual GP & EAP: Instant access to healthcare and mental health support, ensuring your contractors are looked after even when they’re off-site or on the move.
- Lifestyle & Savings: From up to 40% off cinema tickets to significant discounts at hundreds of major high-street retailers, supermarkets, travel, leisure and eateries.
- Financial Wellness: Services and resources designed to help the flexible workforce manage their finances with confidence with specialised services and providers who service the contingent market.
- Integration: Through Single Sign-On (SSO) and dynamic links, your contractors can access their perks directly from your existing payroll portal. One login and total value.
For FCSA members, this takes away the administrative heavy lifting. You provide the “Gold Standard” compliance, and Thrivr provides the “Gold Standard” lifestyle package, all under your own brand.
