PODCAST #2 - Dave Chaplin, Alexander Wilson and Seb Maley - IR35
Following the government announcement to postpone the IR35 reform, I feel there's a risk that Contractors, Clients and Agencies will put this to one side and fail to prepare for April 2021. I had the pleasure of speaking with Dave, Alexander and Seb this morning to understand their thoughts and opinions.
Dave Chaplin is the CEO of ContractorCalculator and IR35 Shield. He has personally been a Contractor and has been running ContractorCalculator for 20 years. The site now receives 300,000 visitors per month.
Alexander Wilson is a Barrister specialising in Tax and IR35. He is also a Chartered Tax Advisor.
Seb Maley is the CEO of Qdos Contractor, a company that have specialised in IR35 for 20 years. They have a Contractor Client base of 39,000 people and partner with over 500 Agencies.
