Working with Oyster
Everything a working contractor needs in one place, timesheets, pay dates, compliance and who to call when something wobbles.
Timesheet in Tuesday, paid Friday
Log hours into the Timesheet Portal (TSP), by Tuesday 12pm latest.
Timesheets must be approved by 12:00pm to be paid on Friday.
We process umbrella and PSC payments. Queries flagged today are fixed this week, not next.
Cleared funds by Friday. If it hasn't landed by 2pm, call payroll, don't wait until Monday.
Green across the board before day one
Passport or share code, verified by us before submission. Takes ten minutes.
Names and numbers for your last two managers. We call them, warn them we're nice.
Umbrella or PSC details, per the role's IR35 determination. We'll walk you through options.
Standard or enhanced for regulated activity. We initiate it, usually back in days.
MRICS, MCIEH, MRTPI evidence where the seat requires it. A photo of the certificate does it.
Confirmation of assignment, rate, hours, client, dates, in writing before day one. Always.
We call you, not just the client
Regular check-ins through every assignment, and when this one ends, the next one's usually already lined up.
