The Challenge: Managing Sponsorship Alone

Before Borderless, Caremark Poole & East Dorset faced:

  • Manual Processes – Reliance on spreadsheets and the Sponsor Management System (SMS) was time-consuming and error-prone.

  • Compliance Concerns – A constant fear of Home Office inspections or licence revocations.

  • Recruitment Struggles – Spending heavily on advertising with poor returns, while still facing severe staff shortages.

  • Low Retention – Local recruitment was unreliable, with high turnover preventing growth.

We really struggled at first. There wasn’t much help available, and every step felt risky. We were constantly worried about missing something important.
— Martin Hall, Managing Director, Caremark Poole & East Dorset

The obvious benefits are time savings and better management of finances. Before, if someone resigned we had to use agency to fill the gap because candidates wouldn’t arrive for months.
