Firstly, has anyone actually done it, and, secondly, how did you do it and what would you do differently?
I am leaving for another role from current gig - agent did not chat with clientco until last minute. Agent has not been good with comms at all - frustratingly I would have had a 4 month extension offer but as I was not communicated with I did not know, which is why I have already signed up for another role. (Less money but I am committed to seeing it through, and it is also an interesting role which is why I am still going for it).
As it happens I have a good sub I used to manage on a previous role and we get on well and trust each other - we travelled together for a while. He is up for completing my contract - The benefits for clientco is that my knowledge and input will still be around to support them - major go-live in a couple of weeks. If he has a fresh contract it would take them longer for red tape and also mean my email access ends so cannot support the critical period.
These are not the actual numbers, but, say the rate is £500 and I pay my sub £450, how does this get handled in terms of my accountants and paying my sub?
The clientco could well end my contract and start a fresh contract instead of going for the sub route, in which case my life is a lot easier as I just walk. I am keen to explore the sub option to maintain a professional relationship during my upcoming gig, financially, and also to keep things fresh.
