**What the Autumn Budget's Employers' NI changes mean for IT contractors 💼** With the Autumn Budget 2024 heralding significant changes, the contracting market stands at the brink of transformation. The UK government has announced a 1.2 percentage point rise in Employers' National Insurance Contributions (NICs) to 15% and a lower threshold of £5,000 for these payments to begin, effective from 6 April 2025. These adjustments aim to bolster public finances and amplify funding for essential services. However, these NICs changes will undeniably ripple through the contracting sphere. For contractors operating via umbrella companies, the decrease in take-home pay may be unavoidable unless they can negotiate higher day rates. As umbrella companies face increased employer costs, these will inevitably trickle down to contractors, squeezing their earnings. Exploring compliance and favourability among umbrella companies becomes critical to avoid the lure of non-compliant entities promising unrealistically high returns, which could lead to hefty tax liabilities. Interestingly, this shift in Employers' NICs could spur an increased preference for outside IR35 engagements. Companies might favour limited company contractors for project-based deliverables to sidestep the growing burdens of permanent employee costs, including these elevated NICs. The flexibility offered through outside IR35 arrangements could present a win-win: businesses achieve cost efficiency while contractors enjoy higher day rates and contribute substantially to the Treasury. In essence, while the NICs changes introduce challenges, they also stimulate a potential market shift towards more flexible, outcome-based contractor engagements. This shift could catalyse significant structural changes in business hiring practices, favouring a balance between permanent employees and a diverse pool of skilled, on-demand contractors.

Getting the basics right....✅ In a candidate driven #hiring market, candidate experience can be the key differentiator in attracting and securing the best #talent . Whilst hiring organisations have a key role to play in delivering an interview and assessment process that is engaging, yet challenging, and suitably reflects the organisations #EVP and Values proposition, agency partners play a key role in maintaining candidate interest.....which can often be a tricky task given the considerable variation in timescales between stages of a process, and during those lengthy notice periods! #feedback is critical in ensuring we're on the right path with our commitment and approach to our candidate's journey - as such, a big shout out is absolutely deserved for Diane Marjoram. "The experience I had with Diane 1st Executive Ltd was fantastic from the initial contact via LinkedIn to the after care check-ins once I was in my new role. Diane provided valuable insight to interview questions, answering techniques and recruitment processes. Diane maintained regular contact via call, text and email through my job search / interview process leaving me feeling supported and in good hands. I would 100% recommend Diane to anyone who is looking for that next move to optimise your #procurement career potential" If you're beginning to consider your career options for #2025, then schedule some time in with Di to explore what the market can offer! You'll be in safe hands. #procurementjobs #suppliermanagement #tprm
