Pioneers

Founded in the late 1990’s as a subsidiary brand of one of Europe’s largest Risk Management organisations, Checkback International (Checkback) is widely recognised as one of the pioneering brands in the sector and market leaders for the UK & Pan-European vetting sector (Business & Finance Magazine).

Global Service Providers

Under its original management, Checkback has evolved into an independently owned group (2010), with headquarters in St Albans and regional offices in Dublin and Santander, Spain. The Checkback team operate in 160+ countries and remain the informed choice for over 1000 Human Resource and Security professionals that require independent, quality-assured 3rd party verification during their recruitment process.

Respected

At Checkback, we work with a diverse range of clients from leading brands across all sectors, from the BBC and Barclays to the Cabinet office, the Home Office and several Formula 1 Racing Teams.

We Work for you! Our primary goal is to provide maximum choice for our clients, with optimum flexibility. We don’t set fixed term contracts or request minimum spends of any kind. Our vision is simple – to create a Virtual Screening Team for each client and vetting solutions based on clients’ specific requirements, with a front-end client dashboard managed by our Screening Team Lead Expert. Our Screening Expert effectively becomes your executive assistant, your eyes and ears, and your primary point of contact to deliver an efficient, professional, tailored solution that meets the highest regulatory standards.

You see what we see! With our own, in-house development team, Checkback is powered by our proprietary vetting software, with bespoke, fully-GDPR compliant Client and Applicant Dashboards. We prioritise the Applicant journey, by reducing their footprint, whilst ensuring the Client remains fully informed and compliant as the Data Controller. Our vetting software is entirely online, supporting a paperless process and with real-time Client tracking functionality.

Compliance at the core

We hold all major Quality Standards, including ISO 9001, ISO27001, DIAFT and Cyber Security Essentials. We are a pre-approved provider of Home Office IDV and Right to Work checks. Vetting standards are hard-wired into both the Client and Applicant dashboards reducing human error and turnaround times. All data shared with 3rd parties, including Clients, Applicants and Inspectorates, such as DBS, credit agencies, DVLA and the Home Office, is fully encrypted at source.

We are a Team

Our company culture is essential to our operations – and Internal Marketing is the cornerstone of our unique approach. We believe that success should be celebrated together, and so we share a minimum of one-third of all profits across our team.

We’re looking forward to working with you.

The secret of our success

The Checkback Process

At Checkback, our process has been designed with both the client and applicant at its heart. As your virtual screening team, we tailor our service and our technology around your needs, implementing innovations that streamline your screening experience. Our screening dashboard is ready to go from your first login and our in-house technology team can modify your dashboard to your precise requirements, from functionality to your brand colours where required.
