Why contract hiring
Flexible resource, without the overhead
Contractors give you specialist capability on demand — without long-term headcount commitments or employment risk.
Fast placement
Contractors move quickly. We typically shortlist within 48–72 hours — so your project doesn't stall waiting for the right person.
Deep specialist pool
We have a strong pipeline of active contractors across tech, finance, engineering, marketing, and more — ready to start quickly.
IR35 compliant
We manage IR35 status assessments and ensure all contractor engagements are fully compliant — protecting your organisation.
Any engagement length
One day to multi-year — we match the engagement to your need and can extend or adjust contracts as your requirements change.
International contractors
We place contractors across the UK, Europe, Canada and the USA — including via EOR for international engagements.
International reach
UK, Europe, Canada, USA — on-site, hybrid, or remote. We'll find the right person wherever they are.
Common use cases
Project delivery
Bring in the right specialist for a defined project — tech migration, product launch, marketing campaign — then wind down when done.
Cover and backfill
Maternity, sick leave, or a sudden departure — contractors can be in seat and productive within days.
Specialist capability
You need a skill set you don't have in-house — and don't need it permanently. A contractor gives you access without the headcount cost.
Peak demand
Seasonal or campaign-driven workload spikes — scale up fast with contractors and scale back down when the pressure eases.
Try before you hire
Start someone on a contract while you assess fit — then convert to permanent if it works out well for both sides.
