Depends how long you think you'll be there.
The charges can vary. It would be worth asking the HH who they'd recommend, as they'll have people they've got a good relationship with.

It's for 6 months on paper, however the HH has placed 6 other people there (in other functions) over the last year and apparently each contract has been extended.
Really nice people too.

EDIT: Seems from what I have research online that the costs vary massively. Given the DR (which I'll gaz rather than mention) I could get stung if not careful.

More money to be made if you go in as a Ltd.
You can pay yourself £620 a month and take a quarterly dividend. Umbrella wise, do some research, as depending on how you are able to rape the expenses, you can save a lot of tax.

Done Ltd before. A lot of hassle re IR35. A lot of the umbrellas seem to claim they can help get around this.
Need to see a formal offer first!

Surely IR35 only counts if you're a sole trader?
If you make yourself an employee, it doesn't touch you.
I remember mr b3th being worried when it came in, but he's never been affected by it.

Apparently not. HMRC are having a big crackdown, particularly on sole director Ltd's turning over less than X with no employees and no more than single revenue source.

I would love to work for Google. I worked for Amazon a long time ago and several of my former colleagues have gone to Google and really enjoy working for them.
