I am trained and fully qualified, what next?

We provide all our candidates with assistance and advice on progression.

The most common routes to start consulting would include the following avenues:

"Rank style agencies"

You can register with nationwide agencies which will charge a small booking commission for sending you out to emergency jobs for agreed areas that you cover. Some are very busy and will provide you with a turnkey solution to instant employment, be sure to work according to their terms and conditions and consult in an ethical manner as they have a reputation to protect. Low start up costs.

Franchises

Excellent franchise opportunities exists, great turnkey solution and highly profitable, the only drawback would be that of start up costs, which could typically be around £30K, based on statistics some franchises provide excellent guarantees!

Agency employment

Excellent way for gaining experience and immediate work, great for exposure to different types of contracts and environments. Be sure to comply with contractual requirements.

Full time employment

There are plumbing firms who do not use freelance / self employed workers but instead will offer

fulltime positions that they find hard to fill.

Own business

With the right advise many of our students end up running a combination of their own business and freelance consulting. Highly lucrative!
