Hi All,
My current contract is almost certainly ending over the next few days - it's purely commercial on their part (no work, good for IR35 at least). I've been direct with a consultancy/bodyshop working with their clients.
Chucked up a "Need some work" LinkedIn post the other day and one of their customers has contacted me telling me to get in touch if I'm after some work. Obviously there's no guarantee at this point, but it's a good potential avenue - especially as I already know them.
Unsurprisingly, I have a relatively standard no-compete and, being fair, this is exactly what they're trying to stop. Now, I don't have any particular moral issue with them acting as my agent, but I don't want to become a mug. So, I was wondering if anyone else has played this game?
