Hello,
I am starting my first assignment on Monday through Reed and had been advised I could either get paid through an Umbrella company or set up my own limited company.
Having researched the options, I went for the limited company route and have set up my company through the companies house website.
Reed have recommended I go through ClearSky accounting to help manage everything myself but as a qualified management accountant I am tempted to try and manage things myself.
However, my head was turned by ClearSky's free trial period. My thinking being that I may as well have some help finding my feet and can always walk away. As I was about to sign up I was reading the T's and C's and there is a 30 day notice AND a £150 exit fee - I'm very concerned even if I went with a free trial, I'd end up spending at least one month's costs and the exit fee.
Does anyone have any experience in managing their limited company themselves without such a management company or the services of an accountant? I've been looking online for some resources to help advise what I need to do and when but every website I've found offers advice to a point and then offers to take care of everything for me for a small monthly fee!
Thanks in advance - all advice appreciated!
