# Employee Onboarding Software in Cambridge

> Employee Onboarding Software for businesses in Cambridge. Cube Systems covers Cambridge and Peterborough, Ely and Huntingdon, with on-site implementation and support from our Olney office.

**URL:** https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/employee-onboarding-software/cambridgeshire/cambridge

Cambridge is well within our regular travel radius from Olney, which means implementation here is done in person rather than over a screen share. That matters more than it sounds: most of what a system needs to know is learned by standing in the building.

## What is included

- **Contracts and e-signature:** Contracts generated from templates with the employee’s terms merged in, issued for signature, version controlled, and stored with a full audit trail of who accepted what and when.
- **Right-to-work capture:** Documents uploaded and verified before day one, with expiry dates recorded and re-check reminders scheduled automatically for time-limited permissions.
- **Tasks with owners:** IT accounts, equipment, building access, uniform, training and buddy allocation raised as tasks against named owners with due dates relative to the start date.
- **A structured first week:** A schedule of introductions, systems training and policy reading, so day one is planned rather than improvised by whoever happens to be free.
- **Probation and check-ins:** Seven, thirty and ninety-day check-ins and probation review dates scheduled automatically, with reminders to the line manager before they are due.
- **Offboarding in reverse:** Leaver workflows revoke system access, recover equipment, calculate final holiday and trigger the exit interview - on the right day, without anybody remembering.

## Real-world use cases

### Day one with no laptop

**Scenario:** A growing business regularly had new starters arrive to no computer and no email account, because IT found out about them the same morning as everyone else.
**Outcome:** Accepting an offer now raises IT and equipment tasks automatically with due dates ahead of the start date. Day one starts with a working laptop and a login.

### Contracts signed weeks late

**Scenario:** Contracts were posted, signed, posted back and filed - when they came back at all. An audit found several employees with no signed contract on file at all.
**Outcome:** Contracts are issued digitally and signed before the start date, with automatic chasing. The file is complete for every employee, and the audit trail is timestamped.

### Seasonal intake overwhelming HR

**Scenario:** A business taking on forty seasonal staff each summer ran onboarding manually. It consumed the HR team for a fortnight and things were still missed.
**Outcome:** Bulk onboarding runs the same workflow for every starter simultaneously. The HR team now manages exceptions rather than processing forty identical sets of paperwork.

## Figures

- **Before day one** Contract signed, right to work verified, laptop ready
- **Named owners** Every onboarding task has someone accountable
- **Same day** Offboarding revokes access when someone leaves

## Frequently asked questions

**Are the e-signatures legally valid in the UK?**

Yes. Electronic signatures are legally recognised in England and Wales for employment contracts. Each signature is captured with a timestamp, IP address and a locked copy of the exact document version signed.

**Can we use our own contract templates?**

Yes. Your templates are loaded with merge fields for the employee-specific terms, and you can hold different templates per contract type, department or site.

**Does it handle right-to-work re-checks?**

Yes. Time-limited permissions have their expiry recorded and re-check reminders scheduled automatically, so a follow-up check is never dependent on somebody remembering.

**Can it create IT accounts automatically?**

Task creation is standard. Full automated provisioning into Microsoft 365 or your directory can be built via the API - Crushed Ice, in the same group, does this kind of integration routinely.
