Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Cambridge does not create a special IR35 code for Accounts Assistant work. The client SDS should name the Cambridge workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Cambridge Accounts Assistant brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 Accounts Assistant work in Cambridge is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on a South East rate uplift, so a higher Cambridge headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Cambridge does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control.
