What makes Zinc background checks different?

You need background checks, not bottlenecks. Zinc speeds up your workflows, builds compliance confidence, and makes a great first impression on candidates.

Speed through automation

Zinc’s automated approach layers your checks so you see results faster, while still leaving the final call up to you. And with automatic follow-ups, referee reminders, and centralised reporting, you’ll spend less time in your inbox and more time on what matters.

Top-tier safety and compliance

Traditional screening leaves you vulnerable to human error. Zinc mitigates risk with tech-first checks, industry-leading encryption, and a team of compliance experts. Plus, we’re SOC2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant.

Award-winning candidate experience

First impressions matter. Zinc’s mobile-first platform makes it easy for candidates to complete checks on-the-go, and custom branding gives you control over their experience. Candidates can re-use check info to save time, and contact our UK-based support team on live chat with any questions.

UK hiring expertise

No matter what UK sector you’re hiring in, Zinc helps you build a strong, foundational compliance process. From the FCA to the CQC and everything in between, our team is here to support with expert advice and audit-ready paper trails.

Compliant by design

ISO 27001 certified, SOC 2 Type 2 verified, GDPR compliant, and PBSA accredited - security and compliance are built into every layer of the Zinc platform.

Rechecks are now an hour's worth of work in total. Which is absolutely incredible for us, and it means that we're being a lot more compliant as well.
