I have one question.
How do you move from permie to contract later on , given that you will need reference,
which will not be provided ,if you jump ship after say 6 months or don't work the full notice periods.

otherwise make the company dormant or put it all in a sipp if you want to save tax.

With accrued tax bills, directors loans, retained income etc it can be quite expensive to switch to permie and clean up your LTD CO, especially after taking a pay cut and moving to PAYE.

Get in there, camp on the boss for training courses, pick the projects and technology you want to have a piece of, do every CBT the company owns and then next year double your rate.
Call it a sabbatical rather than the end of contracting.

There is always the option of sharpening a spoon on a stone and using it to gouge a hole in your own face.
If you're really desperate.
