Erm, DWP, contracts over £220 per day (I believe these contracts are £275 a day, tops) and a requirement to 'prove' you've 'properly' accounted for tax and NI ie inside IR35.
Thanks, but no thanks even though this site is literally on my doorstep.I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

I did a 18 month stint at Blackpool for DWP a while back. If I remember, it was through an agent called NESCO or NES or similar, based in Cheshire somewhere.
Think it was the most archaeic place I've ever worked - properly stuck in the 70's in many ways!Comment
