This should be the last of our brief weekly updates in advance of IBAM taking over Insight’s contractor management and recruitment service from InterQuest this Wednesday (1st November).

​

This email is being sent to all contractors involved in the transfer, whether you are currently engaged through a third party or directly with InterQuest.

​

Contracts (this is repeated from last week’s comms)

All contracts have now been sent out, either to UK umbrella companies if you are engaged by one of these, or direct to yourselves in you are on a PAYE contract with us. If you are engaged through a third party agency, either in the UK or US, we have also sent contracts between IBAM and the agencies and your contract will continue to be with the agency.

​

If you have any queries on your contract, please liaise with your umbrella company, ourselves or your agency as relevant.

​

If you are engaged directly with IBAM or via a UK umbrella company but don’t think you have received a new contract yet, please contact us urgently. We will be follow up on any unsigned contract today/tomorrow.

​

Your Personal Data

If there are any gaps in your personal data, Victoria Ellis-Bailey will be reaching out to you so we can complete our record for you. Thank you to all who replied to our previous emails on this.

​

Timesheets and Payments

You should continue to submit timesheets to InterQuest through their InTime system up to 31st October. We will be sending you log ins to our online system, which is called TSP, by the close of business tomorrow (31st October), but this should only be used from 1st November.

​

Our Team

As we communicated last week, your new points of contact from Wednesday will be Scott Keys and Victoria Ellis-Bailey. Both are now set up on Insight’s systems and have Insight email addresses. They are both in the London office today and tomorrow, sitting in the HR area, continuing their handover and training with Neelo. If you happen to be in the London office and have any queries, they’ll be happy to meet you.

​

Drop in on Wednesday 1st November at 160 QVS, London

If you are a London contractor, Soctt and I will be hosting an all-day informal drop in session at 160QVS (QVS 3rd Floor Client Suite Meeting Room 1) if you want to meet Scott or have any questions.

Between now and 1st November we will continue to send you a brief weekly update in advance of IBAM taking over the Insight’s contractor management and recruitment service from InterQuest.
 

This email is being sent to all contractors involved in the transfer.

Contracts
As we mentioned last week, we expect to issue new contracts next week. This will only apply to contractors directly engaged by us, either directly or via an umbrella company. If your services are being provided via an umbrella company, we will be emailing your umbrella company directly with the new contract.

Your Personal Data
We may need to collect some data on you over the coming week, either because we need this to pay you directly, or because we need to hold this data and report it as part of our obligations under HMRC’s employment intermediaries reporting requirements, or because it is helpful to have your contact details for communication purposes.

The sort of data we will need includes your home address, personal email address, mobile/cell number, date of birth, gender and NI number. Whilst we have some of this data from InterQuest and from the calls we have been having with each of you, it is not complete, particularly for those engaged through UK umbrella companies. InterQuest cannot guarantee the data they hold in these situations is up to date, so to be certain we have the correct data, we will need to ask you to provide it again.

Please watch out for a form which we might email you over the coming week. If we do not email you, it means we have your data and are confident that it is correct and up to date, in which case we will email you separately with the data we have been given and ask you to notify us if it is incorrect.

​

As always, if you have any queries at all, please do reach out to us on the email address below.

Kind regards

Between now and 1st November we will be sending you a brief weekly update in advance of IBAM taking over the Insight’s contractor management and recruitment service from InterQuest.
 

This email is being sent to all contractors involved in the transfer.

 

Contracts
If you are engaged via InterQuest directly or via one of InterQuest’s payment intermediaries (e.g. a UK umbrella company), as opposed to being engaged by a third party recruitment agency, you will have received a termination notice a week ago, because your contract (or your umbrella company’s contract) with InterQuest will cease on 31st October 2023.

You (or your umbrella company) will be receiving a new contract from IBAM with effect from 1st November 2023, which will run to the end date you had previously agreed with Insight/InterQuest. We expect to issue these contracts in the week commencing 16th October 2023. There is no need to worry if you have not received a contract before then. (This is because we are in the middle of setting up a new contractor management system for Insight and your contracts will be issued directly from this system).

 

Timesheets and Payments
You should continue to submit timesheets to InterQuest through their InTime system up to 31st October. In the last week of October, we will be sending you log ins to our online system, which is called TSP, but this should only be used from 1st November.

Umbrella companies and other agencies
We have now been in touch will most UK umbrella companies used by InterQuest and all third party agencies (whether in the UK or the US), to introduce ourselves but also to make arrangements for the agreement of contracts between IBAM and these companies.

Our overall aim is to ensure a smooth transition from InterQuest to ourselves.

As always, if you have any queries at all, please do reach out to us on the email address below.
