Appointing individuals to provide consultancy or other services
I NEED TO APPOINT AN EXTERNAL SUPPLIER TO COMPLETE A BESPOKE PIECE OF WORK. WHAT STEPS DO I NEED TO FOLLOW?
Appointment of external suppliers of services requires various steps to be completed before the supplier commences work. In all cases we must check the employment status first, this applies whether the individual is working on a self-employed basis or via a Ltd company.
If you would like to appoint a consultant for a new piece of work please complete the External Consultancy template and submit to the Finance Team at least six weeks before work is due to commence, where possible.
Please contact finance@phc.ox.ac.uk with any questions relating to the appointment of consultants or other individuals who are not employees.
