Talk to Contractor Umbrella. They are a good bunch, and the right structure for you.

Best of luck.

One final thought it may be worth considering using this time to top up your pension, depending on personal circumstances.

Agreed. Use an umbrella company, do not consider anything else, if anyone mentions retaining 75%+ of earnings, ignore them.

Hi,

I have been offered a one-off 3 month role at a company and they want me to be a contractor. I have never contracted before, so I have no idea what I am supposed to do.

The contract is for 3 months, the daily rate is £250 and I anticipate that I will not do contracting work again after this role. I am taking this role to fill some time whilst I sort out permanent employment in which I will not be a contractor.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
