Night shifts that cross midnight
Overnight shifts are handled as one shift, for clashes, rest and hours.
Shift Desk
Fill every shift,
without cutting corners.
Built for agencies that supply workers by the shift — care, warehousing, hospitality, events. See the whole week on one screen, fill gaps in a click, let workers claim shifts on their phones, and go from confirmed hours to a sent invoice without re-keying a thing.

The recruitment CRM trusted by UK agencies placing every day
Every shift filled, every worker cleared before they're booked, every hour on an invoice.
One screen for the week. Every site, every day, with your fill rate.
Filled in a click. Workers ranked by who's most likely to say yes.
Checked before booking. Right to work, DBS, references, double-booking and rest.
Hours to invoice. Worker confirms, client approves, invoice goes out.
How it works
Your whole week on one screen.
Every client site down the side, every day across the top. Each cell shows booked against required — green filled, amber short, red nobody yet — with your fill rate up top. Day and night shifts at the same site sit on their own lines, so a full day never hides an empty night. Flip to Workers to see your supply the same way.
- Day, week and fortnight views
- Today and Tomorrow cards show what's still short
- Hours still to chase and right-to-work lapses flagged up top
Fill a gap — never with someone who isn't cleared.
Click a short shift and ATSpro lists who could cover it, ranked by who's most likely to say yes: how close they are, whether they've said they're free, and whether they've worked there before. Book in one click. Anyone who can't be booked tells you why — already working those hours, not enough rest, a lapsed ticket — before you've picked up the phone.
- Right to work, payment type, references and DBS checked on every booking
- No double-booking, overnight shifts included
- Eleven hours' rest enforced between shifts, both ways
- Client-specific requirements, like a forklift licence or Food Hygiene

Workers book themselves.
Rather than ringing round, tick the workers you want and press Offer. Each one gets the shift on their phone — the pay, the hours, the site and how to get there. The first to accept gets it, and anyone who opens it afterwards is told it went to someone quicker. No app to install: workers use a secure link.
- First to accept wins — the board updates on its own
- Workers see upcoming and past shifts, and confirm their hours
- They keep their own availability up to date
- Offers only go out when you press the button
Sell the workers you haven't placed.
Free days are money waiting to be made. The Workers view shows who's free and not yet sold, with notes that travel with them. Tick the days you want to sell, click Sell, and ATSpro drafts the availability email for you — each worker's days and the tickets they hold. Pick the client, check the wording, send.
- Free, booked and unknown days at a glance
- Open a worker's day to see their tickets and any shift they could fill
- Pitched days are marked until the client replies
One confirmation per client, not dozens.
Once shifts are filled, send each client a single email with every shift and every worker — plus a compliance summary for each worker, so the paperwork arrives before they do. Prefer a confirmation the moment each shift fills? Set it per client.
- Every unconfirmed shift grouped by client
- Optional compliance summary for every worker
- Batched or per-shift, set on the client record
From hours to invoice, without the admin.
After each shift the worker confirms their hours on their phone. A timesheet is built from them and sent to the client to approve in one click. The invoice is raised from the approved timesheet — VAT and all — and emailed to the billing contact if you've chosen that. You decide when clients are asked and whether invoices go out on their own.
- Hours confirmed by the worker, not keyed in by you
- Client approval from the email — no login
- Invoices created on approval, sent automatically or held as drafts
- Approval deadlines, chasers and escalation you control
Built for real shift work
The details that make a shift desk safe to run at speed.
Rest between shifts
Eleven hours by default, before and after every shift. A client can ask for more.
Client shift policies
DBS levels, tickets and references required per client, checked on every booking.
Assignment information
Workers get the details of each assignment with the offer, and can read it again any time.
Weekend and bank holiday rates
Premium rates applied from the shift's rate schedule, by bank holiday region.
Nothing sent behind your back
Offers, confirmations and re-offers go out when you press the button.
Shift Desk or Timesheets?
Use the Shift Desk when you supply workers by the shift — many short bookings across many sites. Long-term temp and contract placements keep using weekly timesheets. Both end in the same approval and invoicing.

Shift Desk FAQs
What is the ATSpro Shift Desk?
The Shift Desk is the part of ATSpro built for agencies that supply workers by the shift. It shows every client site and day on one screen, suggests and books eligible workers, sends shift offers to workers' phones, sends booking confirmations to clients, and turns workers' confirmed hours into timesheets and invoices.
Do workers need to download an app?
No. Each worker has a secure personal link — no app and no password. From it they accept offered shifts, see upcoming and past shifts, confirm their hours, and keep their availability up to date.
How are workers suggested for a shift?
ATSpro lists the workers who are eligible for the shift, ranked by how likely they are to say yes: how close they live, whether they've said they're free that day, and whether they've worked at that site before. Workers who can't be booked are left out — and if you search for one by name, ATSpro tells you why.
What compliance checks happen before a worker is booked?
Every booking — whether you make it or a worker accepts an offer — checks right to work for the date of the shift, the worker's payment type, that they aren't already booked at the same time, and that they'll have had eleven hours' rest. References, DBS and tickets such as a forklift licence or Food Hygiene are checked when your settings, the job or the client require them.
Does ATSpro send offers automatically?
No. Offers go out only when someone on your desk presses Offer. Removing a worker from a shift leaves the gap open and visible without contacting anyone — you decide who to offer it to next.
How do clients confirm and approve?
Clients get booking confirmations by email — one per client for all their shifts, or one per shift, as you prefer — with an optional compliance summary for each worker. Timesheets go to the client's approver, who approves from the email without logging in.
How do hours become an invoice?
After each shift the worker confirms their hours from their link. ATSpro builds the timesheet, submits it once the week is complete, and sends it to the client to approve. On approval an invoice is created automatically and, if you choose, emailed to the client's billing contact.
