About Us
JNF, a Recruitment Agency
Franchise, was established in 2000 by its sister
company Abacus Care, following Abacus Care's achievement in
becoming one of the country's most successful recruitment agencys
in terms of nursing & care staff - and accredited
with Investors in People, BS EN ISO 9002 and winner of the Best
Business in West Lancashire Award.
The provision of staff across all market sectors
was the natural progression that led to JNF. Building on experience
and high quality standards, we have already been awarded BS EN ISO

Business Opportunities
We are looking for franchisees across the
UK to become part of our growing network
Want your own business and have something to
prove?
Are you hardworking and motivated?
If so, a JNF recruitment
agency franchise could be for you!
Quality franchising from the company you can
count on...
As a franchisee, you will have the potential to
profit from a £1m turnover within 4-5 years. All our
franchisees start up from home, which reduces the overheads of
your recruitment agency dramatically compared to many other
franchises. As a franchisee you will also receive ongoing training,
management advice, support and benefit from all our experience to
give you high prospects of success.
Our recruitment agency franchise areas are
built on a 500,000 population base, ensuring that you have the
potential, with our computerised system, to create a large business
of your own.
It is a proven statistic that franchise
businesses have a much higher success rate than other start-up
business types. This is for a number of reasons - the franchisors
have usually ‘been there, done that’ and, having
experienced the rewards and pitfalls, they can bring their
invaluable expertise to your business.
Why Franchise?
The financial and tax rewards certainly make the
offer interesting, as does the feeling of being your own boss,
taking time off when you please, and knowing that all your hard
work is being appreciated … by You. The risks,
legislation’s and controlling the company’s finances
can add up to become quite a daunting prospect and the thought of
failure can make you hesitate.
This is why buying a recruitment
agency franchise offers a solution.
Buying a franchise is a great way of starting a
business, reaping the benefits and overcoming the obstacles. With a
franchise you gain a licence to run a successfully proven business
system under a well-established trade name, with back up from the
Franchisors. Not only do you have the advantage of
the Franchisors advice, but also of belonging to a growing group of
successful franchisees who are all working to develop the
business.
JNF past present and
future
JNF started trading in January 2000, and so far
has built up a wide ranging client and personnel
database recruiting temporary and permanent staff for
various industries.
JNF recruitment agency is a subsidiary of
Abacus Care, a National Nursing Care Business. Abacus Care
currently boasts 24 franchises stretching across the
country.
Abacus Care Ltd began trading in August 1991, and
is concerned with the provision of staff to both the private and
public sectors. The business is organised so that appropriate staff
can be provided to a variety of clients. The business system has a
Quality Assurance award (BS EN ISO 9002) and Investors In
People.
JNF uses similar methods and the
agency is responsible for recruiting supplying temporary
and permanent staff in all the other areas of employment and is a
complimentary service to Abacus Care. The company have achieved the
Quality Standard BS EN ISO 9002 accreditation. This means that this
is a very efficient business system, which includes full
computerisation, something that will enable you to cover
clients’ requirements quickly, efficiently and
reliably.
JNF builds upon the thriving business systems and
franchise systems that has been developed and successfully
implemented by Abacus Care. The business system reduces
administration to a minimum whilst maximising returns by being more
efficient.
Why JNF?
Full Management Training and
Support - Ongoing individual support and assistance from
the Franchisors and those who work within their
business.
Low Franchise Fees and Start Up
Costs – The franchise fee is solely there to cover
our costs of setting up a franchise for you. We are interested in
you developing into a large business. The Management Service Fee is
significantly reduced for the first years to improve your profit
margins and to help you avoid borrowing large amounts of money. If
you are successful in the long term, then so are we. In addition to
this there is the advantage of starting from home, keeping
overheads down.
Continual Business Development
– The business system and computer software is continually
developed and updated to keep you one step ahead of the
competition, which is unique in this area.
Full Training Programme –
Your training will cover all aspects of running a JNF
Recruitment Franchise, from recruitment and placement, through
to invoicing and wages. Also, because the Franchisors run their own
business you get the benefit of learning from their experience
which cuts down on time spent making mistakes.
Costing and Financing
JNF Employment offers 2 franchise
opportunities:
Purchase 1 Franchise Area for
£10,000 +VAT
Purchase 2 Franchise Areas for £15,000
+VAT
This initial fee is low compared with many
franchises
The management service fee is based on the gross
turnover of your business. This will be reduced in the first year
so that you can build up capital to finance further development of
your business instead of
borrowing the money.
The management service fee is 2% + VAT on gross
turnover for the first £200,000 (or the first year, whichever
is sooner). The second year is 4% + VAT, and the third year and
thereafter is 6% +VAT at the
appropriate rate.
The franchise will be for a five-year period with
an automatic right to renew subject to the agreement conditions,
without further 12 We can help you to produce a full business plan
and come with you to answer questions.
We can refer your chosen bank to banks that we
deal with so that the managers can discuss the business.
We feel that is unlikely that many potential franchisees will get
very far with their bank and business plans without our
help.
Why You?
Because you are looking to start your own
business, we are looking for franchisees in your area, and together
we will be successful!
The single most important factor you can expect
from us is the ongoing support that you will receive right from the
start of your application, all the way through to set up of your
business and its development.
JNF have achieved the Quality Standard BS EN ISO
9002, already held by the parent company.
Abacus Care first gained BS 5750 in 1993, and were annually awarded
this standard until 1994, when it was upgraded to the European and
International equivalent.
The BS Manual is already in operation, and was
written with the help of the accrediting company to make sure that
it complies with the standard.
Conclusions
The business is designed to be flexible enough to
follow changes in the market trend, because we are interested in
the long-term development of your business. That is why the
business is broadly based allowing you to take advantage of
different markets/clients etc, as well as any previous experience
you have personally.
We have developed a system for your recruitment
agency which will help to remove some of the typical problems
that can often cause business startup headaches. You will be able
to get advice from people who have done it before and are
experienced in advising you in this situation.
