pls recommend some good umbrella companies

what's the expected monthly net income for a £350/day contract job?

How much do you want it to be?

There's a sticky thread in Legal and Accounting that will answer that question, as well as explaining why umbrellas are a bad idea (always wear a hat myself...)

I think the rates are insane but hey who cares.

Last role I did was £350 a day which is plenty if you ask me! That's still £96k a year if you work all year so it probably lands about the £75k mark after prospecting and holidays.

Contractors with a reputation of being expensive are the ones that fall the hardest when bad times hit.

If I divide my permie salary for the days I worked last year (and no, have only had two\three weeks of sickness) I already calculated 360 a day. How can 350 a day be plenty? You are a cheap monkey, if I can tell you.
