management companies for IT contractors in New Zealand

Hi
As it is says above - does anybody know of good/cheap management companies for IT contracting in New zealand

I know of cxc but have used them in ireland before and find them too expensive for what they actually do.

Thanks

You can apply for an ABN and set up your own company and pay your own taxes if not if you want to claim LAFHA which Im sure you know about.

Never heard of anyone like CXC here, think you set up your own company....there is a catch though! PM me and I'll explain!!

"Living Away From Home Allowance" - sounds interesting ill try read up on it..

I worked through Talentpoint when I contracted at Fujitsu for a few months and they were fine. Not really a management company as such but I could work for them without registering my own company. I ended up doing that anyway before I got offered a perm position.

I thought the LAFHA was in Australia not NZ?

with CXC myself here, was with them in Oz too and although they are more expensive than in Oz the per diem allowance works out similar to Lafha there...no complaints with using them
