Hi folks,
After having moved away from contracting and taken my first ever perm job (I know, I'm sorry)... I find myself having been made redundant (lesson learned) and am looking at getting back into contracting. I have an opportunity which the employer has deemed outside of IR35 so would mean starting a new Ltd company and that's where my questions come in...
1/ Does the Ltd have to just exist for one purpose? Aside from my IT work I'm also a photographer doing the occasional wedding, corporate event or suchlike and I run workshops and holidays. Also, during lockdown I took the opportunity to do some training and am now a qualified Personal Trainer and am looking to start up running bootcamps and groups fitness sessions. Up till now I've dealt with the non-IT stuff on an SA basis, but it would be good to have one Ltd that could invoice, account for, etc all my income under one roof. is that possible?
2/ Suggestions for a company name that's generic enough - previously I just used my initials and "consulting" but as I'm now (possibly) going to be covering more bases then would it make sense to just use my name + Ltd or go for something which is nothing to do with anything?
3/ Recommendations for company formation, accountants and registered office - whose using who?
Thanks for your help!
