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