PGC and 3R join forces - an easier way to grow in the US
3R has joined forces with the North American division of Workwell Global (formerly PGC Group) a leading US Employer of Record (EOR), to offer recruitment agencies a seamless, fully compliant route into the American contractor market.
The partnership gives recruitment businesses everything they need to expand into the US with confidence, combining PGC, and now Workwell Global’s, best-in-class EOR services with 3R’s trusted funding and back-office infrastructure to deliver a complete solution for placing and managing contractors.
If you’re ready to grow in the US, this is the opportunity to do it faster, safer, and with confidence built in.
"Breaking into the US market represents a huge opportunity for UK agencies, but it’s also one of the most complex and challenging moves you can make," said Amy Davies, Managing Director of Workwell Global (incl PGC Group).

“This partnership brings together two trusted providers to deliver one powerful, fully integrated solution that removes the admin, risk, and complexity of placing contractors in the US. We’re making it easier than ever to scale into the US market, backed by a responsive team of experts who are always available, always human, and absolutely focused on helping recruiters succeed."
From funding constraints and navigating state-by-state employment laws to managing compliance and understanding cultural nuances, it’s no surprise that many agencies see their US expansion plans stall or take time to get off the ground.
The stakes are high. Longer payment terms, pressure to deliver for clients, and the constant need to protect cash flow make scaling in the US risky without the right infrastructure in place.
Two service-first teams.
Dan Brogan, Managing Director of 3R
"From our initial discussions with the PGC team, it was clear we were completely aligned," said Dan Brogan, Managing Director of 3R.
“Not just in terms of service offering, but also in culture, values, and a shared commitment to making life easier for recruiters. Both businesses are deeply focused on being strategic growth partners for their customers, working side by side with agencies to deliver real, long-term success.
“From day one, our personalities fit, our values matched, and we share the same service-first mindset. We are on the pulse of the recruitment sector and the challenges that exist currently for businesses. Our teams genuinely understand the pressure, complexity, and pace agencies operate at.
“That’s why this partnership with PGC is so important. By teaming up with a proven US Employer of Record, we’re giving agencies a safer, faster route to success - reducing upfront investment, lowering compliance risk, and removing the typical barriers that hold growth back."
One seamless contractor solution.
Get ready to launch into the US like you mean it. The 3R and PGC partnership delivers a complete, fully integrated solution that makes placing contractors in the US simple, compliant, and scalable from day one.
Recruiters can confidently place workers in all 50 states, with PGC handling every compliance-critical detail: worker classification, employment contracts, onboarding, timesheets, payroll, benefits, and tax filings - acting as your employment law experts so agencies can operate without risk.
At the same time, 3R provides unlimited in-country US funding designed to support rapid growth, powered by a robust back-office platform that simplifies client invoicing, cash flow (with outsourced credit control), and financial management. A built-in real-time reporting suite gives recruiters full visibility of financial performance as they scale.
Together, 3R and the North American division of Workwell Global (PGC) have taken care of the complex infrastructure and people power so recruiters can focus on what they do best: finding great candidates and growing their US contractor book.
Dan Brogan, says: “Recruitment businesses shouldn’t have to stitch together five different unintegrated providers just to operate in the US. Our goal is to give recruiters everything they need to scale in one place, with unrivalled service, and no barriers. With 3R and PGC, growth in the US isn’t just possible - it’s faster, safer, and built to be unstoppable.”
