The UK service economy
runs on shifts.
We run the shifts.

FlexiWork is the complete workforce platform for UK hospitality, retail and events businesses — rota management, flexible wage calculation, and on-demand agency cover in one system. We are raising £250,000 under SEIS to close the market, not build the product.

The legislative tailwind

The Employment Rights Act 2025
just created half a million new customers.

The biggest reform to UK employment law in a generation. Shift-based businesses face new scheduling, documentation and compliance obligations — most are not ready. FlexiWork is.

Zero-hours contracts
Workers can request guaranteed hours
After 12 weeks, zero-hours workers gain the right to request a contract reflecting their average hours. Employers must document and respond formally — not manage it informally over WhatsApp. FlexiWork tracks patterns automatically and generates audit-ready records from day one.
Day-one rights
Unfair dismissal protection from day one
The two-year qualifying period is being removed. Every worker carries statutory rights from their first shift. Scheduling records, clock-in logs and documentation become critical evidence. FlexiWork creates that paper trail automatically.
Agency workers
Stricter rules on pay parity and conditions
Businesses using agency staff face enhanced obligations on equal treatment, pay parity and substitution rights. Managing agency cover informally is no longer viable. FlexiWork's Agency module enforces compliance from the point of booking.
Flexible working
Default right from day one, refusal must be justified
Employers must respond to flexible working requests in writing with documented justification. Auditable scheduling systems are now a compliance requirement — not a nice-to-have. Without one, a tribunal letter is a matter of when, not if.
FlexiWork was built for exactly this moment. Rota scheduling with full audit trails. Wages that document every pay calculation. Agency cover with compliant worker matching. The Act created the urgency. The product already exists. This raise is about distribution — not development.
SEIS tax relief

Among the most investor-friendly
structures available in the UK.

The Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme was designed by the government to reduce the effective risk of investing in early-stage companies. The reliefs are substantial and apply from the moment you invest.

50%
Income tax relief
50% of your investment is deducted directly from your income tax bill in the year you invest — regardless of when the company uses the funds.
0%
Capital gains tax on exit
Any profit you make when you sell your shares is entirely exempt from Capital Gains Tax, provided SEIS conditions are met at exit.
50%
Loss relief if company fails
If the company fails, you offset remaining loss against income tax. Combined with upfront relief, your effective maximum downside is significantly reduced.
100%
IHT relief after 2 years
Shares held for two or more years qualify for 100% Business Property Relief from Inheritance Tax — making SEIS investments estate-planning efficient.

The opportunity

8 million shift workers.
One system that finally works for all of them.

8M+
Shift workers in the UK
F&B, retail, hospitality, events. The backbone of the service economy — almost entirely managed through WhatsApp groups and spreadsheets.
500K+
Shift-based SMEs in the UK
Under-served by enterprise software. Over-exposed to the documentation and compliance obligations created by the Employment Rights Act 2025.
23%
SMEs using dedicated scheduling software
The remaining 77% are the addressable market. The Employment Rights Act 2025 is converting aspiration into urgency across all of them simultaneously.
15%
FlexiWork commission on agency shifts
Traditional agencies charge 20–35%. FlexiWork's 15% is competitive, fully transparent, and creates a transaction revenue layer on top of subscriptions.
No competitor owns the full stack at SME pricing
Deputy, Bizimply and Rotaready each solve one problem. None connects scheduling, flexible pay calculation, on-demand agency cover and compliance training in one platform. FlexiWork does — at a flat monthly fee that undercuts per-user pricing by 60–80%.
The legislative window is narrow and time-sensitive
ERA 2025 provisions are being phased in through 2025–2026. Businesses are looking for solutions now, before enforcement catches up. First-mover distribution advantage in B2B SaaS compounds fast.
Two-sided network effects build a defensible moat
Every employer on the platform strengthens the worker marketplace. Every verified worker makes the platform more valuable to employers. The network effect starts at client acquisition — not Series A.
Founder-led distribution that cannot be bought
Ten years of senior HR relationships across the UK service economy gives FlexiWork a warm-introduction pipeline that no competitor can replicate with ad spend. Trust-based B2B sales at scale from day one.
The product

Built from lived experience.
Not from a whiteboard.

Every module was designed by someone who spent a decade managing workforces in the environments FlexiWork serves. The product reflects that precision — and two core modules are already live.

Live
Rota — Scheduling & Attendance
Create and manage rotas across multiple locations. Invite permanent and casual staff to open shifts. Digital clock in/out. Automated timesheets. Full audit trail — every shift, every change, every confirmation documented. Directly addresses ERA 2025 record-keeping obligations. Includes 12-week zero-hours tracking built in.
Live · Paying clients onboarded now
Live
Wages — Flexible Pay Calculation
A blank-canvas pay engine. You set the rules. We do the maths. Handles any pay structure — hourly, shift-based, split rates, enhancements, overtime. Fully configurable by the employer. Connects to timesheets automatically. Not a payroll bureau — a precision calculation engine that feeds your existing provider.
Live · Bundled with Rota
In Build
Agency — On-Demand Cover
Post unfilled shifts to a marketplace of verified, trained workers. Workers apply; employers approve. No cold agency calls, no 25% placement fees. 15% commission on completed shifts — transparent, competitive, and integrated with the rota. ERA 2025 compliant matching built in from the ground up.
In development · Launching within this raise period
Planned
Academy — Compliance Training
Health & safety and food hygiene Level 1 awareness training for agency workers and employer staff. Legally required for every worker placed through Agency. Commercially sold to SMEs as a standalone product — creating an additional revenue line and reducing client onboarding risk.
Post-funding build · Required for Agency full launch
Pricing: Flat monthly fee per business — Starter (up to 15 workers, £17.50/mo early access), Growth (up to 50 workers, £32.50/mo), Scale (up to 150 workers, £55/mo). No per-seat fees. Early access pricing is 50% off for 6 months — built-in conversion urgency for client acquisition. Agency commission at 15% generates transaction revenue alongside subscriptions.
The founder

Built by someone who
diagnosed the problem first.

Csenge Csoka is a British HR strategist with over a decade of senior people leadership across the UK, Europe, Singapore and Vietnam. Before FlexiWork she operated as a fractional Chief People Officer, working with growing businesses across F&B, retail, hospitality and events.

That background is not incidental — it is the product. Every module in FlexiWork was designed by someone who has personally managed the problems it solves: scheduling chaos, pay calculation complexity, agency dependency, no-shows, and compliance exposure that turned into tribunal risk.

Csenge is working on FlexiWork full-time with no salary drawn — a deliberate choice to maximise runway and signal conviction to investors.

This is not a technical founder who stumbled into an industry. It is an industry expert who chose to build the infrastructure her sector needed, rather than wait for someone else to.

Use of funds

£250,000 SEIS.
12 months. One clear milestone.

The £250,000 SEIS raise funds a complete, standalone 12-month plan. It reaches a defined milestone on its own — no second raise is required for investor capital to be deployed purposefully.

Month 12 milestone — what £250K achieves
75+ paying employers across F&B, retail and hospitality
Agency module live — transaction revenue generating
£6,500+ MRR in subscription revenue from employer base
GTM motion validated — repeatable client acquisition proven
ERA 2025 compliance built into every active client account
Product at enterprise grade — integrations complete, support infrastructure in place
No dependency on a second raise The £250,000 funds a full 12-month operating plan with a meaningful contingency buffer. FlexiWork does not need an EIS round to close for this capital to be deployed as planned. Milestone achievement is the trigger for the next raise — not a prerequisite for this one.
Early access pricing creates urgency Clients are currently onboarding at 50% off for 6 months. This is a deliberate conversion lever — not a sign of price pressure. Full pricing takes effect automatically, building ARR without renegotiation.
What comes after

SEIS investors get first access to what follows.

The EIS raise — triggered by milestone, not by hope

Once the SEIS milestones are reached — 75+ paying employers, Agency live, validated GTM motion — FlexiWork will raise a subsequent £350,000 EIS round to fund the full commercial engine: a sales hire, full marketing activation, Academy build, and the operational infrastructure to scale to 250+ employers.

EIS investors benefit from 30% income tax relief and 0% CGT on exit. The EIS raise does not open to new investors until it is first offered to SEIS investors — protecting your position as the company scales and ensuring you can maintain or increase your stake at the next stage.

The two raises are connected by milestones, not by dependency. SEIS capital achieves its mandate independently. EIS is the acceleration layer — not the safety net.
