New Horizon Recruitment Terms and Conditions

Permanent Staff Terms and Conditions

The permanent introduction fee payable is calculated by applying the relevant percentage to the total first year’s remuneration. The relevant percentage is the rate which corresponds with the remuneration band into which the total first year’s remuneration falls (as set out in the table below). The total first year’s remuneration means all emoluments together with all benefits that form part
of the annual gross taxable pay (ie the gross emoluments and benefits to be paid over 12 months before applying any exemptions, allowances or deductions for income tax purposes) to include, where a car or car allowance is provided, the sum of £5,000 or the car allowance, whichever is greater. Minimum Introduction Fee: a minimum fee of £1,000 plus VAT is chargeable. Where commission, bonus or similar payments form the whole or major partof the emoluments, the minimum introduction fee is £1,500 plus VAT.
