So you’ve decided to make the leap from permanent employment and reap the benefits contracting can bring – good choice! Of course, we know that such an important decision isn’t taken lightly, and you’ll want to be sure that you pick the route that best fits your own circumstances.
If you’re brand new to contracting, you might want more hands-on assistance. That’s where an umbrella company such as our sister firm Parasol can help. They’ll take care of all the extra admin and provide all the rights and benefits enjoyed by permanent employees – including sick, holiday and maternity and paternity pay.
All you’ll need to do is regularly submit your timesheets and expenses claims and they’ll take care of everything else – it’s that simple!
Our best advice team can give you in-depth advice on the pros and cons of being a limited company to help you make the most suitable choice, so get in touch with them today.
