Learn the secrets as to why people love to Temp!

Ever wondered why some people choose temporary work? In a flourishing Temporary & Contract marketplace, it is worth learning the secrets as to why Temping is loved by so many professionals to see whether it could work for you!

1)     Earn more

  • Temporary Payroll professionals are in demand therefore businesses are competing to secure experienced Payrollers. This competitive market means that you can earn up to +20% more than the permanent salary equivalent; helping you to manage the rising cost of living and giving you peace of mind.

2)     Upskill

  • Temping is the perfect way to diversify your skills & knowledge. A temporary position will open you up to experiencing new sectors, learning from new professionals, working in different size teams plus giving you exposure to alternative processes and even different systems.

3)     Flexible working to suit your needs

  • Working temporary assignments is the perfect way to manage the other important things in your life. The majority of our temporary positions range between 1 month-6 months meaning that you can work around childcare, personal development opportunities, health concerns – whatever it may be.

4)     Quick Starts

  • Securing & starting a Temporary position can be extremely quick. With video interviewing now standard practice and remote working more accepted, interview to start date could be within days – and is often no longer than 2-weeks – you could get your first paycheck within a month!
  • This means fewer gaps between assignments and gives you the opportunity to Temp & earn while searching for a permanent position; giving you peace of mind when exploring new opportunities.

 

Whilst permanent positions are considered more financially stable long-term, they can also be very restrictive with little room for flexibility around your responsibilities and lifestyle choices.

Temporary work can be more rewarding, more challenging, and more flexible – all great reasons to explore Temp assignments.
