Umbrella Services
If you’ve decided that running your own business as a limited company you might consider working through an Umbrella Company. An umbrella company is a separate company that acts as an employer for contractors working on contracts. An Umbrella company is also an intermediary between the contractor and their end client or agency.
Once you have chosen an umbrella company there are the typical first steps you will take as an umbrella company employee:

- The agency will then pay the umbrella for the invoiced sum.
