Other options ...
a) If you can identify a deliverable (say, prepare and submit a tender), then you can negotiate a charge for the deliverable. Doesn't have to be priced on time, necessarily.
b) Take a cut of the monetary value you deliver. If you help them win a project worth 1 m, you can charge them x%.
c) it can be a combination of the above.
Good luck.

You've really got to get some professional advice on this one, it's a potential minefield for everyone involved....

Worth a punt at least.

You could invest via your Ltd Co but that just seems pointless and not financially economical.
Do you trust your fellow directors and\or have appropriate agreements in place, with roles\responsibilities. If so then it's a no brainer for me, go for it.
This could turn out to be a nice plan B actually...

IR35 is on a role by role basis and how you are perceived in that role so no being a director of two companies doesn't make a difference really.

How to link to another company?
So, I've been invited to join another company as a director type role providing virtual services, but working on a dividend type payment way. I.e. they want PM and business consultancy to enable them to become services focused and respond to tenders and grow, but dont want to pay a day rate. They are also not an IT
What is the best way to do this? Is it to just become a director and shareholder of their company, or should I contract it via my company, but how do you do this without writing in charges? Would being a director in another company help any with IR35 (assuming that the relevant additional contracts are IR35 safe) contracts and the PSC tulip?Tags: None
