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!
