Thinking about leaving your current agency?

Many contractors stay put because they do not know their options. If your current agency gives you no transparency, no confidence, and no clear advocacy, Hyperion IT offers a cleaner switch path with full visibility and no lock-in clauses.

Full Rate Transparency
No Lock-In Clauses

Five things we do that most agencies don't.

After 20+ years working as contractors in the IT industry, we wanted to build a business purely focused on contractors. That means less stress, more consistency, and a better day-to-day experience for the people doing the work.

Full
Rate transparency

Full Price Transparency

You see a clear rate breakdown and every statutory oncost before you sign anything. No estimates, no vague 'industry standard' answers. Just the full picture.

0
Restraint clauses

No Lock-In Clauses

We never include restraint of trade or lock-in clauses. You stay because the service is good, not because you're contractually stuck.

3
Payment options

Flexible Payment Cycles

Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. You choose what works for your cash flow. We just need an approved timesheet.

$0
Hidden fees

No Hidden Surprises

No admin fees. No joining fees. No exit fees. No 'processing charges'. The rate you agree to is the rate you receive, paid on consistent, fixed days. Contractors are paid on the agreed cycle, even before payment is received from the department.

Not reactive

What could a lower agency fee mean for you?

Start with the number you actually know: your hourly rate inclusive of superannuation. We then estimate the underlying agency fee, payroll tax, and charge-out so you can see what the same buyer budget could mean for your take-home rate.

Your current rate

Enter the hourly rate you are paid, inclusive of 12% superannuation.

These are indicative fee bands only. They are used to estimate how the contractor rate, agency fee, payroll tax, and charge-out may be structured in a typical engagement.
Illustrative estimates only. Calculations assume 12% super, ACT payroll tax at 6.85%, 220 working days per year, and Hyperion IT's lower-fee model.
