For today’s healthcare professionals, locum work offers unprecedented freedom and flexibility. But with independence comes a set of challenges—how do you manage invoicing, taxes, pension planning, and ensure you're paid on time, every time?
That’s where Beacon Locum Contracting steps in, providing tailored umbrella company solutions designed specifically for the healthcare sector. Whether you’re just starting out as a locum or you're a seasoned consultant managing complex income streams, our umbrella plans offer a smart balance of administrative support and financial efficiency.
An umbrella company acts as an intermediary between you and your employer or agency. Instead of setting up your own limited company, you operate under the umbrella structure—meaning we handle invoicing, tax, and compliance, while you retain control over your schedule and earnings.
At Beacon, we specialise in helping medical professionals, from GPs and consultants to allied health workers and NCHDs, streamline their finances without the paperwork headaches.
We offer three key plans to cater to healthcare professionals at every stage of their career:
Ideal for doctors and healthcare workers who want to avoid setting up a company or managing finances independently. With this plan, Beacon acts as your employer for tax purposes. We take care of invoicing, payroll, and tax filings—so you can focus on your practice.
Benefits Include:
Perfect For:
New locums, part-time healthcare workers, or anyone looking for a low-maintenance contracting solution.
For high-earning professionals who want more control over how they’re paid and how much tax they pay, the Umbrella Director plan offers a smarter solution. It combines all the benefits of the employee plan with additional tools for tax planning and pension contributions.
Extra Benefits Include:
Perfect For:
Senior doctors, consultants, and other high earners seeking efficient financial planning without forming their own limited company.
This unique offering is designed for independent practitioners who want the tax advantages of self-employment and the convenience of umbrella support—without the responsibilities of running a company.
Exclusive Benefits:
Perfect For:
Established locums or private practitioners ready to optimise income while avoiding the burden of company management.
