A potential contract has surfaced, but with the recent IR35 win\loss threads I’m now thinking that it may well be inside IR35. I’m not going to dismiss the opportunity if it is inside, I’ll just look for a higher rate.
Spec is:
Consulting role, relating to specific knowledge of network management software.
The role will mainly be working on projects, with no D&C on how my project work is accomplished.
The position is part of a small networks team, filling a knowledge gap.
There will be some other work (support-type), when specific production issues are escalated from an operations team (reading the judgement from the recent HMRC IR35 win, this is one of the main things that’s concerning).
I’ll be on a daily rate.
I will not bill for time if there is no work.
There may also be contract issues as it seems the preferred agency is rather inflexible with contract amendments (Elan).
What’s the consensus, inside or out?
