    Think it was the most archaeic place I've ever worked - properly stuck in the 70's in many ways!

    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.
