As a sole trader you don't have to pay yourself super but it's usually more tax effective to do so. One thing to be very wary of, is if you earn more than 10% of your income per year as an employee (which can include working through a recruitment agency), you're not counted as self employed and you can't make your own super contributions. It's a very unfair rule and one of many reasons it's good to speak to an accountant early on.
