Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Glasgow does not create a special IR35 code for Business Development Manager work. The client SDS should name the Glasgow workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Glasgow Business Development Manager brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 Business Development Manager work in Glasgow is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on a regional rate discount versus London, so a higher Glasgow headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Glasgow does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control. Read the Business Development Manager Glasgow contract for workplace, hours, and equipment clauses.
