We have appointed an independent company to audit our compliance annually. We are delighted that Professional Passport has passed our compliance each year since 2009.

Your first contact with Orange Genie will be through our sales team which is managed by Pras.  They will answer your questions and clarify any points which might be unclear to you and hopefully give you a feeling of confidence in our service. And, once you decide to join Orange Genie they will take responsibility for getting you set up, issuing your offer letter and contract of employment. They will introduce you to your account manager who will look after you in the long term.

Pras is enthusiastically supported by Stuart, Nick, Will, Thema, Ellie and Lucy

Every member of our contracting staff is looked after by an account manager who will be your first point of contact if you have a query, or need to resolve a problem.  It is important to remember that you are employed by Orange Genie and you should address all issues on your assignment or your pay to us, not your agency.

Your account manager is responsible for contacting you before your assignment starts and will explain how we operate, highlight key policies and procedures and generally will try to ensure you benefit from everything the company offers.

Our payroll operations team is responsible for 5 primary tasks:

• Invoicing. Operations ensure that an invoice is produced and sent to your agency as soon as you complete and submit your timesheet on the portal.
• Expenses. Whether expenses are chargeable to the client or an allowable expense against tax the operations team vouch and approve every claim made.
• Cash Allocation. Operations are responsible for identifying and reconciling payments received for assignments. We aim to identify all cleared funds on the day they are received and to payroll you the same day.
• Daily Payroll. Processing payments at least once every day allows us to make sure that we pay you as soon as possible.
• Agency Help Desk.  Operations provide the first point of contact for agency customers and are responsible for resolving any queries or problems they encounter.
