Many businesses needing extra staff use contractors successfully, for flexibility or for resources on one-off projects or jobs requiring specialist expertise or turnaround. Contractors can also be used either to allow permanent staff to concentrate on the core business or to enable them to be seconded onto project work.
Contractors can generally be called in at short notice at times where there is an urgent requirement for additional resource.
Wilkinson & Associates registers interim staff at all levels, from newly qualified to executive level. At the newly qualified level, candidates are more often than not travellers from overseas who hold UK-accepted qualifications, such as Australian, New Zealand and South African Chartered Accountants. These contractors are generally only in the UK for a fixed period of time, or may be looking for a contract to permanent option once they have found their feet in the marketplace here. Senior contractors very often provide specialist expertise and are a desirable option where there is requirement for the individual to be able to hit the ground running.
Wilkinson & Associates are flexible and are able to assist with interim requirements on a fixed term contract (on your company payroll) or hourly/daily rate basis (supplied through Wilkinson & Associates and therefore not an employee of your company).
