Yes, you can live in France and contract to a UK company, so long as the UK company (or agency) is happy paying a French invoice. There may be some VAT complexities, and of course you must comply with French law. You will be liable to pay tax in the France only.

A UK national, living in France, contracting to a UK company remotely - possible?

I retired to France in 2020 having been an IT contractor for several years. However I am now being invited to work for a UK company remotely. I am registered for French tax but am not yet up to speed on the post Brexit situation.
I'm not intending to set up companies to handle this - just act as an independent contractor on a day rate.
Has anyone else done something similar and can offer any advice please?
Thanks
