What Makes us Different

You are looking for a solution to help you in your contracting career, to take away the worry, hassle and administration. Perhaps you are wondering how these solutions are different.  One umbrella company is just like any other? Here are 8 reasons why we believe we are a good company to provide umbrella services.

• We offer the flexibility you would have with your own limited company combined with the peace of mind and protection of an umbrella company.
• You are assigned a named customer service person to help you with any queries or questions.  We won’t shout from the roof tops but we were the first umbrella company to offer this - now many claim to do this.  In practice though we hear it is a different matter. This is a people business. People liaise better with people, not call centres or web site FAQs.
• Our service is proactive.  We work with you to maximise your take home pay.  Other umbrella companies will pay out all your money as soon as they receive it.  Sounds good - but if you have no expenses you will be taxed on every penny which means you will take home less money over a tax year.
• If we receive no expenses from you, we will chase you.  Expenses will save you tax and National Insurance and increase your take home pay.  Without this service you will take home less money.
• As a responsible employer we will offer help and advice to help you craft your CV for maximum impact.
• We can help you find contract work.
• You can have an optional, personal mitigation account, that can help you smooth out any peaks and troughs of your contracting income, help pay for those holidays and any time off between contracts. It does not cost you anything, but might save you a packet.
• We were set up by former contractors. Mmm… you might think how does that help me?  We have contracting right at the heart of our company, with a flexible structure and service that adapts to your requirements.  We are not just a bunch of former contractors - we are supported by top contract and employment lawyers, Chartered Accountants and Chartered Tax Advisers.
