Good To Know

As a Contractor using the Umbrella (PAYE) solution you will pay both the Employee PRSI and Employers PRSI. This is an industry standard for this type of service and ensures you maintain the full PRSI benefits.
As a contractor you only get paid when you work. You don’t get sick pay or holiday pay. However, contractors are paid a higher daily equivalent than employees doing the same role to reflect this. Gain financial security and expert advice on structuring your finances with our service which includes a free annual financial review with expert established financial advisors.
There’s no requirement to file a Personal Tax Return when operating through the Umbrella (PAYE) solution, although in some instances you may have to file a return for other reasons (for example if you have additional income, rental income etc.). If you’re unsure check in with your Dedicated Account Manager and if needed, we can put you in touch with our expert tax team.

Testimonial

“They took all the stress out of being self-employed for the first time. I didn’t have to worry about any tax or legal responsibilities or even billing. They politely followed up to make sure I didn’t miss any deadlines and the team were incredibly responsive whenever I had questions (and I had a few!). I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.”
