This Research Associate contract template is designed for a commercial research organisation (or an individual research associate) to use when contracting out their skills and services in exchange for payment. This contract sets out the type of research and research-related services to be completed by the research associate on behalf of the client, with consideration for expectations around quality and delivery timescales, as well as any mitigating circumstances. This contract allows for payment to be made by the client to the research firm or individual research associate on a weekly or monthly basis but can easily be edited to account for other payment schedules and could be altered to include bonuses conditional on performance. It can also be fully customised with the details of the two parties and the duration of the contract and can be printed, downloaded and edited freely as part of our mission to open source business legals. This is a template for contractors who fit outside of the UK's off-payroll working rules (IR35).
