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.

Employee Onboarding Software in Tamworth

Tamworth is comfortably within a morning’s drive of our Olney office, 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.

A bad first day is expensive and entirely avoidable. It usually happens because onboarding is a mental checklist held by one person: the contract goes out late, IT finds out on the morning, and the new starter spends day one waiting. CubeHR turns onboarding into a workflow that triggers from the start date - contracts and policies issued for e-signature, right-to-work evidence captured and verified before day one, equipment and system access raised as tasks with owners and due dates, and a structured first week with check-ins at seven, thirty and ninety days. Offboarding runs the same way in reverse, so access is revoked and equipment recovered on the day someone leaves.

What it does

Inside employee onboarding software

The parts of CubeHR that make up onboarding. Everything here shares one data model, so nothing needs re-keying between them.

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.

In practice

Problems this actually solves

Anonymised, but not invented. These are the situations businesses describe to us before they change anything.

Day one with no laptop
The situation
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.
What changed
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
The situation
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.
What changed
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
The situation
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.
What changed
Bulk onboarding runs the same workflow for every starter simultaneously. The HR team now manages exceptions rather than processing forty identical sets of paperwork.

Getting to you

Roughly 53 miles from our office in Olney, Buckinghamshire. Discovery, training and go-live are done on site as standard - not because it looks good on a proposal, but because most of what a system needs to know is learned in the building.

How it happens

What implementation actually involves

The same process wherever you are, and for Tamworth it is done in person.

Discovery
A structured session mapping how you work now - the systems, the spreadsheets and the bits held together by one person’s memory. We come back with what the platform covers as standard, what needs configuration, and what needs building.
Configuration
Your structure, sites, roles, approval chains, document templates and permissions set up to match the business - not a demo tenant with your logo dropped on it.
Data migration
Existing records brought across and reconciled: customers, stock, bills of materials, employees, holiday balances, contracts. We migrate, you check, then we cut over.
Training & rollout
Role-based training so people learn the parts they actually use, with a pilot team first where it makes sense. Documentation and short screen recordings left behind for new starters.
Ongoing support
UK support from the people who built the platform, with a named contact, agreed response times, and a product roadmap you can influence.
