This is a new situation to me, but I'm sure not uncommon:
I'm currently contracting direct with Client A - a digital agency. The contract's almost up, and they're trying to line up further work with another of their clients (Client B). This will be a completely different project, and would require me to be on-site at Client B's offices. From my point of view, my contract is with Client A and they pay my invoices. But from Client B's point of view, I work for Client A. The project will be agile software dev.
An added detail is that Client A want me to interview at Client B in order to be accepted for the contract.
Am I a disguised employee of Client A?
Or is My Ltd a sub-contractor of services to Client B, via A?
Bonus question: Client A have offered to run the contract via an agency (at their cost), if that helps the relationship.
How would you handle this situation? (Let assume the MyLtd -> Client A contract is itself outside IR35, with a statement of work for the specific project).
