Company overview

PROHIRE LIMITED has recently entered administration. A Notice of Intent (NOI) to appoint an administrator was filed on 27 June 2025, providing a temporary legal protection from creditors. On 27 June 2025, Timothy Graham Vance and Samuel James Woodward, partners of EY-Parthenon’s Turnaround and Restructuring team, were appointed as Joint Administrators. The company ceased trading, and the majority of its staff have been made redundant.

As of its last published accounts (made up to 31 March 2024), turnover increased by 19% to £52.9m (from £44.4 million in 2023). However, pre-tax profits fell by more than £1m, from £1.6m in 2023 to £414,000 in 2024, resulting in an overall loss after tax of £132,000.
