How does GoForma’s Umbrella Service Operate?

1. You find a temporary contract role or a recruitment agency places you in a temporary contract with an end client that requires you to be paid through an umbrella company.
2. You sign up with us, sign a contract of employment and become our 'employee.'
3. You perform tasks for your end client and submit weekly timesheets with detailed hours of work and allowable expenses (if eligible) to us.
4. We send an invoice to your agency, providing details of the work or services you've provided.
5. Your agency receives payment from your end client and transfers it to us.
6. Once we have your gross salary, we deduct Income Tax, Employee’s NI, and Employer’s NI, and pay them to HMRC.
7. We retain our margin or umbrella company fee for administrative purposes, and contributions like pension and holiday pay, and then pay you.
