I am currently working as a perm Tester for an IT consultancy, and live in Surrey.
I have managed to get my first contract. Duration 6 months, location city, banking and start date is 19/3. Before I sign any contracts I need some general advice:
In the current market is contracting recommended for Testers?
With the new legislation coming up in the Budget is Limited Company, or Umbrella the better option?
If Umbrella - Recommendations?
If Limited - Recommendations for Accountants, setting up Ltd Company, Bank a/c.
Do i need to get anyone to check Contract?
How do you organise pension/phi/life assurance, if at all?
Anything else I should be aware of, i.e tips etc.
Any advice would be much appreciated for this "first timer".
Cheers SP121
