Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
A Mobile Developer contract based in Cambridge is still assessed on facts, not postcode. Status paperwork should reflect Cambridge attendance, hybrid days, and substitution. Inside IR35 Mobile Developer pay in Cambridge is usually umbrella or PAYE, while an outside SDS lets the Cambridge contractor invoice through a limited company. Advertised Cambridge rates follow a South East rate uplift, so city uplifts do not imply an outside finding. Travel between home and a Cambridge office is rarely a substitute right. Check Cambridge on-site expectations for this Mobile Developer before you treat the SDS as settled.
