An umbrella company is the simplest way to get paid for most contractors. The umbrella employs contractors carrying out short-term assignments and makes Pay As You Earn (PAYE) and National Insurance contributions - so no unexpected tax bills.
You get a consistent employment record (handy for mortgage and loan applications) and access to entitlements like a workplace pension, holiday pay and maternity / paternity pay. In short, all the benefits of continuous employment as a contractor, without the admin of running your own limited company.
The best of both worlds. All the freedom of contracting with the benefits of continuous employment, which helps with loan and mortgage applications.
Save £100s each month in both PAYE and NI contributions with the UK's leading pension providers. We also pass on 100% of the employer’s savings in the form of additional gross pay.
