Expansion responds to client demand for compliant, flexible workforce solutions across North America and the United Kingdom.
HOUSTON, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Vendorpass and ICON Information Consultants today announced the launch of operations in the United Kingdom, expanding their ability to help clients engage and support contingent workers across North America and the U.K.
The expansion was driven by demand from existing clients seeking support for their U.K.-based workforces. Through its newly established U.K. entity, Vendorpass UK Ltd. will provide Employer of Record and payrolling services, independent contractor engagement and compliance support, and solutions for enterprise contingent workforce programs.
Organizations operating in the U.K. face increasingly complex requirements involving worker status, payroll, employment obligations and contingent workforce management. The off-payroll working rules commonly known as IR35 have also intensified the focus on accurately assessing independent contractor engagements and documenting employment status for tax purposes. Vendorpass and ICON are extending their established operating model to help clients navigate these requirements, manage risk and scale their workforces effectively.
"This expansion is a direct response to our clients. Organizations increasingly want trusted partners that can support them beyond North America while helping them manage payroll, worker engagement and compliance requirements. Establishing operations in the U.K. allows us to deepen those relationships and respond to a clear market need."
— Pamela O'Rourke, Founder and CEO, ICON Information Consultants
Together, Vendorpass and ICON bring more than 28 years of workforce solutions experience, approximately US$780 million in annual revenue and a combined population of more than 7,000 active consultants across the United States and Canada. The U.K. launch extends this established operating model into a new market while adding capabilities tailored to U.K. employment and contractor requirements.
The U.K. offering includes:
• Employer of Record and payrolling services for contingent workers
• Independent contractor engagement, status assessment and compliance support
• Support for enterprise contingent workforce programs
• High-touch service backed by established operational and compliance expertise
"The U.K. presents a significant opportunity for organizations seeking efficient ways to engage talent while managing employment and contractor risk," said Tim O'Rourke, Managing Director of Vendorpass and ICON Information Consultants. "This launch brings the same high-touch service and disciplined operating approach our clients rely on in North America to businesses operating in the U.K."
