Taylor Root has been working closely with businesses for decades to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/our-specialisms\/interim-and-consultancy\/\">hire interim legal staff <\/a>and has the market knowledge and track record to advise on whether fixed-term employees or those on a daily rate will give you access to the best talent and ensure a successful interim hiring process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth is, there are pros and cons to day rate hires and fixed-term contracts if you are looking for short-term resource. Both are highly suitable offerings when thinking about interim legal hiring and can often be a more valuable and cost-effective solution when compared to outsourcing legal work or implementing secondees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What factors affect the decision to appoint via day rate or fixed term contract?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several factors to assess when considering which route to take when hiring interim legal professionals and what will give your organisation the most success in bringing in the right talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We call these factors the seven wonders of the interim world:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The type of role\/technical knowledge you require<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The level\/seniority of role<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The duration of the contract<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The purpose or reason for the interim requirement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The budgets and the \u201cpot\u201d the interim hire needs to come from<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ability to have additional \u201cheadcount\u201d and the organisation\u2019s situation\/status<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The comparison of cost to other outsourced\/ flexible legal resources on

clarity to senior stakeholders when you are thinking about building a business case and successfully gaining sign off from CFO\/ CEO\u2019s for interim legal requirements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daily rate hires are more appropriate if businesses need greater flexibility when hiring interim resources, have uncertain circumstances\/ timelines or when they are seeking candidates who have specialist legal knowledge or sector experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fixed term employee hires are more appropriate when businesses need stability without having permanent head-count sign off, have longer term employment contracts, have certainty in the duration of contracts or are wanting to hire junior to mid-level candidates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pitching an interim role clearly and correctly from the start will ensure rapid results and a smooth process start to finish. <strong>This includes: <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1. Knowing what basis you wish to hire someone (FTC or day rate)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2. If a day rate is the preferred route, is the role \u201cinside IR35\u201d or \u201cOutside IR35\u201d? Do you understand the employment laws around this? You can complete a quick assessment on the HMRC website to assess this. Doing this at the start is always recommended. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/check-employment-status-for-tax\">Check employment status for tax &#8211; GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)<\/a> As an agency, we will ensure that the contractor is appropriately set up and compliant with the outcome of the IR35 determination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3. Ensuring day rates and salaries are in-line with market rates and reflective of the seniority of the position and expectations of the role<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4. Providing clarity over the remit of the role, the reason for the hire and approximate durations and start dates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/submit-a-vacancy\/\">Hire request<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Next chapter: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/market-insight\/interim\/different-ways-of-working-as-a-uk-contractor\/\">Understanding payment models as a UK contractor<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Previous chapter: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorroot.com\/career-advice\/how-to-calculate-interim-market-rate-in-house-lawyers\/\">How to determine your market rate<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the difference between day rate contractors and salaried fixed term contract (FTC) employees?
