... Contractors and Temps

	What we do
	Contractors Contractors are employed for a set period or to provide cover for an absent employee. Contractors paid on a pro-rata basis are placed on the client's payroll on commencement of employment and if either party wishes to terminate the contract they must give notice. Companies use contractors for a number of reasons: To contribute during busy periods  To cover for absences  To assess the contractor’s viability for permanent employment.  To assist with special projects Temporary If you're trying to re-enter the workforce, between jobs or seeking diverse work environments, then temping may be for you. It is a way to broaden your skills and enhance your CV whilst having the flexibility to look for a perfect position. Technological advancements have made temping a strategic part of many companies staffing plans and it’s a fantastic way to network and gain new skills whilst keeping your independence.

• Increased flexibility – Contractors have more control over when and where you work.
• Time to find the perfect position – You have the opportunity to be pickier with permanent roles as you are earning money and the sense of urgency is not so great.
• More variety - Contractors often change roles at least every two years leading to a richer set of experience.
• More Money – Contractors typically earn more than their counterparts in permanent employment.
