More than just an umbrella company, more than just contractor accountants.
Let’s face it, there are lots of contractor accountancy firms and umbrella companies out there. What makes ADVANCE different is that we offer the full range of setup options.
Whether you want to set up your own limited company, work through an umbrella company or subcontract as self-employed, we can help. We’ll offer you impartial advice and guidance on which route is best for you.
What’s more, all of our solutions have received the seal of approval from the Freelancer and Contractor Services Association (FCSA). That means you can have peace of mind that we do everything by the book.
Here's why you can trust us.
Many contractor services providers claim to be compliant, ethical and trustworthy. Not of all them, however, can prove it. We are accredited by and affiliated with the most respected bodies in the contracting and recruitment sector. Indeed, we were the first company to be FCSA accredited for our umbrella, limited company and self-employment solutions.





Happy contractors
ADVANCE‘s service is worth its weight in gold. They’re always on the end of the phone and incredibly professional with a lovely personal touch.

After 20 years I took the decision to go self-employed. This was out of my comfort zone but ADVANCE put my mind at rest. In truth I’d be lost without them.

Simon Titchner
I cannot recommend ADVANCE highly enough to other contractors. They are willing to go the extra mile, answering all of my questions.
