Original Riches

Chasing invoices, bidding for work, doing work and trying to fit in some relaxation time all in one day seems too much for many self-employed people to ask for. And in reality this is often the case. Sometimes, we need a middleman…

Umbrella companies exist to allow sole traders and other legally self employed bodies to carry out their working duties and not worry about their finances. For example, imagine how nice it would be to be able to get on with your work and not worry about chasing that invoice or speaking to that client about cash flow? Another added benefit is that you’ll get paid on the same day each month, mimicking a salary but still working for yourself. Some even help with contract negotiation so you really can concentrate on the work involved and not so much the business side of things.

Darwin Pay is an isle of man based Umbrella Company specialising in alleviating the stress in managing your own finances. Essentially they are contractor accountants fully versed in looking after the interests of their clients on both sides whilst offering numerous advantages. Contractors can even claim expenses through the company so travel and meals can be paid for.

Personally I have relied on umbrella companies to aid my invoicing, taxation and workload for some time now cannot recommend this service enough.
