I'm in my first contract which started as a 6 month deal ending in June and was then renewed until December. My daily rate is £350 but I know the client pays £400 a day so the agent is pulling in some easy money for each renewal I do. I'm expecting the client to keep renewing me for at least another 12 months and at the December renewal I want to see if I can up my rate.
What's the normal practice for this sort of thing and what should I be looking out for just in case the agent tries to stitch me up. Does the agent ever decrease their "cut" of the rate they take to keep you happy if the client refuses to cough up any more dosh?
