I've been contracting for around 10 years, both direct-to-client and with various agencies at home and abroad. Around three years ago I met with Teresa Ellison at Vantage to interview for a contract on a large consultancy project and I have been very impressed with the service. Prompt and reliable invoicing and payment is important while contracting, and the administration support at Vantage has been faultless. I'm now on my second project with Vantage and hope to continue for many more. I think one of the factors that set Vantage apart is the fact that they are not just an agency. They specialise in the contracting market and it is run by software professionals who know the market.
