    Thanks for the clarification...

    Similar position to me. A previous client has asked if I'm available but I want to finish the contract I'm on first before moving to a new one. It’s a PM position and my thought was to get someone else in there while I finish this contract and either take it over when I finish here, or even better keep the person on in the new contract while I look for another.

    So you basically took the position to an agent like any normal company would do? Does that mean they did most of the paperwork?

    Just some thoughts would be good and any experiences good/bad

    Cheers
    I've done it twice. Just advertised the role to a trusted agent at a rate less than what I was on, got some cv's through, did a handover at my company's expense and....BOOMED!

    I have been asked about something simular. I am currently on a contract with a limited number of days (my choice) client from last year has been in contact, wants to give the work to me, knows I maybe can't do it all but want me to sub it out (off-shore). Have a meeting soon to see what's involved. Not sure if it will be worth it

    I doubt it, that's the sort of thing a real business would do.
