Term Contract Employment

I need a Term Contract Employment agreement for a senior software developer who will be working remotely from Spain for our UK company from March 2025 to December 2025, with specific clauses about data protection and intellectual property rights.

Document background
Term Contract Employment agreements are essential documents used when organizations need to hire employees for specific periods or projects. These contracts, governed by English and Welsh law, are commonly used for project-based roles, maternity cover, or seasonal work. The agreement includes crucial details about employment duration, duties, compensation, and termination provisions, ensuring compliance with UK employment legislation. Term Contract Employment documents are particularly valuable when the employment relationship has a defined end date or is linked to the completion of a specific project.
