Qdos

We at ICB have worked with Qdos to provide Professional Indemnity Insurance to our bookkeepers since 2012. Throughout this time, the team have provided a slick and efficient service, saving our members time and money. Well over 1,000 of our members insure with Qdos every year, which goes to show our needs have been extremely well met – we have no hesitation in recommending that any professional association consider Qdos as an insurance partner.

Ami Copeland

Head of Communications

The Institute of Certified Bookkeepers

Working with Qdos and their IR35 status review tool has had two great advantages over standard agency contact with clients. Firstly it has really helped develop a deeper more consultative relationship (including clients established over 15 years!) and secondly it has given clients the confidence to act pragmatically when looking at the IR35 roll out to the private sector.

It’s great to be able to engage in this way with clients whilst at the same time talk to contractors confidently about their IR35 status moving forward. It is a tool I would thoroughly recommend using when engaging with any of your clients.
