An insightful article here in Computer Weekly on what the Autumn Budget’s Employers NI changes could mean for contractors.  “It is highly likely that end clients will be more motivated to reconsider the common approach on blanket bans outside IR35 and provide a more considered approach to their assessment processes, and this could very well result in more roles being considered outside of IR35,” This is interesting, as several of our clients have raised this point with us recently, opening discussions around the recruitment and consultancy solutions that 1st Executive can provide to deploy contractors outside IR35. If you are an employer and are interested in considering your options when it comes to hiring interim Procurement Professionals outside IR35 then get in touch with me directly to talk through our recruitment and consultancy solutions. #IR35 #Interim #Consultancy #Procurement #Contractors https://lnkd.in/epMtgB2G
