If a company was to pay me a salary of £35,000.00 how

Much will that cost my employer? I.e do they pay above and beyond the £35,000 for example pensions, NI etc

Things may have changed but it used to be at least double your salary... To pay for HR, pensions, hardware etc

I heard that's the ballpark estimate, but I guess it depends on your company/rold.

There...

In many private sectors it’s at least double your salary. Private sectors also use the +100% rule when charging for time.

If you’re looking at purely from a tax perspective, it’s doing to cost them approx 13.8% in Employers NIC and then about 2% in Pension contributions in addition to the £35k

This is what I mean. I’m trying to negotiate salary v them paying me as a contractor.

2% for pension seems low, my employer contributions are 21%

Current minimum level under auto-enrolment, employers can pay more.

Employers have to match what employees put in , so can be much higher

Employer may match what you put in but don’t have to by law. Where employers do contribution matching, they usually have a cap to what they’ll accept

I'm lucky that my employer doubles my pension contribution.

I pay 6%

Bare in mind auto enrolment covers all employers (pretty much everyone has joined now) so the contribution levels will vary wildly, but the minimum they have to do is 2%

Just a background character

They probably have to honour sick pay, and other statutory benefits that you may not have been entitled to as a contractor.

yes lol,

I’m going for interview Thursday and trying to compare being a contractor v salary. So I need to establish what my perspective new employer would be paying in total for me. I need to know to negotiate. Thanks for your help.

Double? No way. About 25%

Have you thought about how much money you make for your employer or how much value you add to the company?

Use an on line oncost calculator. That should give you a rough ball park.

Unless I’ve misunderstood, I wouldn’t go into a job interview talking about the benefits of them taking you on opposed to having you as a contractor. Do the interview. Now them away and then negotiate a reasonable, and fair salary

Absolutely, as cost savings can be found elsewhere...

OP you're unique, sell yourself! What makes you the preferred candidate?

Re original question £35k*1.85.

Best of luck.
