Sound familiar?

You never asked to run a business.

The contract said “Ltd only”. So you set one up, found an accountant, signed where you were told to sign — and suddenly you’re a company director.

Now there’s a list of things nobody warned you about:

  • Is this contract CIS or not? Do I need to register?
  • How much can I pay myself each month without getting it wrong?
  • What can the company pay for — and what can’t it?
  • Why is there a letter from HMRC?
  • Why does my accountant only get in touch when they want paying?

You’re two weeks offshore with no signal. You shouldn’t have to worry about paperwork you don’t understand.

Before George, my accountant only got in touch when she wanted paying and I had no idea if I was doing CIS right. George sorted my registration before my next contract and explained everything in plain English. Now I just get on with the job.
