I'm moving back to Australia at the end of August. When I moved over, I found it very hard to find contracts in my specialized skillset, and ended up taking a permanent position.
12 months later, the company is finding it hard to find anyone to fill my position, so they've asked me to continue to work for them, asking if I can work partly from Australia and partly from the UK (flying me back and forth). I'm not keen on this, and will be starting at a development job beginning of November anyway, but I am keen to keep working for them until then, so want to offer them 2 months (September-October) which I could work for them fulltime from Australia.
I'm not sure what would be the best option for me to do? Can I legally still work for them from Australia? Should I negotiate a 2 month contract rather than working permanently?
Also, can I be paid into my UK account and taxed in the UK even though I'm sitting at a desk offshore while I work?
