Independent Consultant & Contractor

How long can an assignment last for?

You may have a special project that needs developing, implementing or managing or have a management gap that needs filling urgently. e.g. a key manager on leave, a gap that needs filling whilst a permanent replacement is found or a special project. New situations are regularly faced where  a substantial amount of information needs to be understood in a very short space of time - and  the correct decision or recommendations made. An immediate impact can be made without the usual honeymoon / induction period. 

Working as an Independent Contractor or Consultant, contracts can be for a few days to complete a specific piece of work (e.g a series of food safety audits or a training course) to longer periods of rotational working (e.g 6/2 for a specific project). Work can be completed either direct or though a specialist recruitment agency serving the oil and gas industry.

Current OPITO approved Basic Offshore Safety Induction Emergency Training (BOSIET), Certificate of Offshore Medical Fitness and Vantage Card for offshore related work.

Where do we work?

Anywhere in the world. Usually, the nature of the assignment dictates that all the work is carried out at the clients’ site but it may be practical to complete some of the work off site and any contract will make provision for this.

How is this charged?

This is normally a fixed daily rate for each day worked, plus an element for expenses. We do not go onto the client’s payroll thereby saving costs such as national insurance, holidays, sickness, training, administration, pensions and other benefits.  Also, there are no costs at the end of the assignment.

Where work is completed through an agency, they usually take responsibility for transport, logistics, health insurance and payroll.

Please Note: This is NOT an interim management and recruitment agency but as a food safety advisor, an interim role can be performed for clients.
