Limited or Umbrella - what is your best option?

If you’re a contractor, the right type of accountancy service for you depends on your assignment and the type of lifestyle and career you wish to have. Our guidelines will help you decide whether you could be suited to a limited company or an umbrella company.

A limited company is typically ideal for contractors who:

Are on a contract for 3 or more months, or may take on more than 1 contract in their career
Earn more than £15 per hour
Are comfortable with being the director and shareholder of their own limited company – it is one of the best ways to maximise your take home pay

An umbrella company is typically suited to contractors who:

Will be contracting short-term
Earn less than £15 per hour
Work in the public sector
Do not wish to complete any admin
