Originally posted by chef View Postdoes it have a right of substitution clause in it? if so, advertise the job for immediate start, 1 weeks contract work in ... etc.
once you've found someone suitable, BEFORE taking on the new contractor, give the details to the end client and tell them you are using your right to substitution, contractor xyz will be here for MyCo's final weeks work etc. etc. They wont like it and will most likely tell you they dont want contractor xyz and agree to terminate the contract early. Your in the clear, contractor xyz gets a "sorry position is no longer available as client cancelled contract" and you are acting like a true business.
you DO have a right of substitution clause don't you? or are you effectively a permie in disguise?This default font is sooooooooooooo boring and so are short usernamesComment

If you're not bothered about burning bridges then just leave.
You might want to change your brolly company though and you might find yourself slightly out of pocket with people kicking up a stink about paying. Assuming that you're paid weekly and with the new contract paying over 50% more than the old one you'll recoup any losses.
