Testimonial


“My first ever contracting role, I was quite scared about starting but quickly realised it wasn’t how I thought it would be. The service was great and all my questions and queries were answered. I was happy to learn that the tax returns were included as I have never done them myself. It really is simple to get started.”

Is Contracting For You

Being your own boss takes a certain type of person. While you might be in a ‘safe’ 12 month contract now, you need to be aware that no-one else is going to find your next contract/client for you. Recruitment Agencies are a great source to help you find a role, but you are most suited to contracting if you are..

  • Confident & motivated.
  • Have a realistic sense of what is possible (mostly around timelines).
  • Organised and adaptable.
  • Able to work alone and have confidence in your decision making.
  • Patient – a stream of work won’t come in overnight, and you might have to say no to a few bad offers before the right one comes along.
