Once you're registered...

  • We ask that you update your CV with us when you complete any new assignment that you gain from your own endeavours or alternative providers. Valuable opportunities are lost because we did not know that you had just worked in a particular sector, with a particular IT platform, in a particular country, with a particular client etc.
  • When we receive a new assignment, in most cases we will post it on the job board, unless the client specifically requests that we don't. In tandem, we will do a database search, and contact you if we feel that you are a match to the assignment. If you feel you would like to come in for a chat at any time, even if the meeting is not linked to the notification of a specific assignment, then feel free to make an appointment.
  • As soon as we have a suitable assignment for you we will meet you for an interview to find out more about you, and to fully brief you on the assignment. This will either be in our offices in Tokenhouse Yard behind the Bank of England, or at a venue to suit you. At this interview, we will require you to bring along a passport or driving licence as identification, and evidence of professional qualifications. We will take photocopies of these, and give you back the originals.
  • At this meeting, you will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement, committing you not to divulge anything you learn at the meeting to any other party. This is to protect ourselves, the client, and you.
  • Generally, we will present the client with more than one candidate to consider. We will let you know if we are not going to put you forward for whatever reason, and we will also respect your wishes if you feel that a particular assignment is not for you.
  • From this point, progression with the client takes many different paths. The client will want to meet you. Some clients are very keen to get someone in position as quickly as possible, others are considering a range of options, or will need you to meet a large range of potential stakeholders before they make a decision. Quite often, they will change their minds about the nature of the project or brief for a whole range of reasons. Quite often they will decide not to proceed at all. This, in most cases, will be nothing to do with you or your abilities, but for a whole host of other corporate reasons. We will keep you posted on progress as we manage the assignment.
  • Should you be successful in winning the assignment, we will then require you to sign a contract with us. This will cover general and special terms and conditions of the assignment. We will have shown you any general conditions at our initial meeting with you. The special conditions will cover specifics such as the venue you will be working at, a brief overview of duties, the name of the client and who you will be reporting to, start and end dates, deliverables, your daily rate etc.
  • In turn, we will have a contract with the client, which covers our responsibilities to them in sourcing you as an interim manager for their project.
  • Every two weeks, you will send us a completed timesheet and an invoice for the days in that fortnight that you have worked. We will then invoice the client, and you will receive payment directly into your account.
