Rapid Personnel's Story
Rapid Personnel was founded in 2002 as a contingency labour supplier to numerous businesses across Berkshire and South Oxfordshire.
Rapid now provides a full suite of services – from Managed Service Providers (MSP) and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) agreements to full business consultancy – to companies across the South East of England. With fulfilment numbers consistently averaging at 97%, Rapid’s results speak for themselves.
Altitude have provided us with the kind of proactive advice that we had previously been missing. With their support we have been able to plan our corporate and personal affairs effectively. Their approach is honest and open and we’re delighted to be working with them

Business challenges
The uncertainty of Brexit has had a significant impact on all businesses, but those who use cross-border workers face additional change and complexities. Operating in the recruitment industry has meant that Rapid has had to be at the forefront and a knowledge leader.
Despite all the challenges faced, Rapid continues to organically grow its revenue and profits and received two nominations at the 2021 Thames Valley Business Awards for ‘SME of the Year‘ and ‘Employer of the Year’.
How Altitude is helping
Altitude started working with Rapid on a complex tax advisory project to restructure the businesses and ensure they were set up in a tax-efficient way and whilst enabling the shareholders to achieve their future aspirations. Following the success of this project, Altitude continues to provide advisory assistance, tax support and now also prepare all statutory accounts, tax returns for the Companies and works with the directors to ensure that the numbers are in safe hands.
Through regular meetings and catch-ups, we are always proactively thinking and working with Rapid so that they can focus on the success that is their business.

Supporting your compliance
Whether it’s basic or complex, Altitude’s commitment to proactive communication means your statutory compliance is always comprehensive and complimentary to achieving your aspirations.
Accounts preparation services
“Producing and filing a true and fair view of your company’s financial statements.” This is what you employ your accountant to do – but we understand that this is an annual event, something that you want done well and efficiently, but not something that necessarily adds value to your business. Ensuring that we manage this process smoothly and effectively allows us to focus on adding this value and elevating your business.
Corporation and Personal tax services
Thorough, transparent and with all the right tax treatments applied ahead of your corporate and personal tax return filing deadline. That’s what you expect from your accountant and that’s what you’ll get from us. In addition to this we go beyond the numbers. We discuss and plan prior to these returns being due so that we can proactively minimise your tax exposure. Helping you understand and manage your current and future tax liabilities is all part of the service, our mantra is that no tax bill should ever be a surprise!
