New to contracting
Stepping into contracting?
The world of contracting is fast paced. Assignments provide new challenges and an opportunity to widen your skillset and work with different people to enrich your working life. It can be rewarding, as you build relationships and more contract work becomes available to you. If it’s your first time contracting you might be unsure of what an Umbrella Company is and how it can help you.
Your agency will most probably be the trigger to hearing about an umbrella company. Most agencies don’t run a payroll for their contractors who they place on temporary contracts. Instead they ask you to join an umbrella company.
When you join an Umbrella Company that company becomes your employer. This differs from permanent employment; you still have the freedom to choose who you work with and how you would like to be paid for that work. The Umbrella Company provides you with a convenient method of payment by invoicing the client or agency on your behalf and ensuring that you get paid on time. The Umbrella Company handles your taxes and ensures that they are paid directly to HMRC.
