Exactly hardly like he was building up the next IBM. A £1 paid up consultancy company that’s done next to nothing in a year then a £90K jackpot from the IOM taxpayer.

A £1 paid up consultancy company that’s done next to nothing in a year then a £90K jackpot from the IOM taxpayer. It is a stretch to draw any conclusions. Many people will form a company to act as a vehicle to provide their services at some undefined point in the future. Particularly English companies which are cheap to form and maintain. Just because the company has been formed does not mean there was a business there immediately. Why would you commit more capital than £1 if there was no business yet? Some companies are formed with £0.01 capital. They are just really sat there ready to use when needed. That does not stop the person forming them continuing to do whatever they do in their own right and name. Looks like there was an error in the name change though! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you change the name on a UK company two weeks ago if you were committed to a role in the IOM? The interview process must have taken longer than that. Looks like he hit the jackpot rather than scratching round for DPO consultancy in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he hit the jackpot rather than scratching round for DPO consultancy in the UK. We do not know, I can't see your point. Perhaps a name change was to align it more to DPO rather than compliance (even though it looks like there was an error in the first name change). At what point would he have been committed to a role in the IOM? The approval was to appoint him, not the company, so not sure where the issue is.

It’s not exactly the most spectacular CV is it? Theres probably many people in the IOM who are jobbing compliance or data protection officers who could do the job. But we offer the role to someone who has set up a £1 company to do some DPO consultancy who presumably 3 weeks ago was still trying to re position the company after less than one years trading. No doubt now the taxpayer will be paying for his relocation costs (up to £10K) and the NI rebate they all get in the first two years too. And that’s if he can be arsed moving here.

It doesn’t really matter as unless you’re planning on passing the six month phase and doing the job it’s just free paid consultancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Seems like a knee jerk appointment donein haste. He appears to flit about about somewhat in various positions. Hardly inspires confidence. I do wonder who is responsible for the selection process and the extent to which they conduct their vetting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
