i All,
I recently started contracting. I'm a qualified accountant with over 10 years experience in practice and industry. Most of my experience has been based around management accounting/R2R.
I am currently working as a Finance Asset Delivery Partner, the responsibilities of the role are much more than initially indicated by my agency (I was told admin level to ease me into the company) and I found out on my second week that they expect me to cover the FC for the 6 months of my 8 month contract whilst they search for a replacement. I am more than capable of carrying out these tasks however prior to starting the role, my rate was confirmed on the basis of it being an admin level role.
Based on the above what do you think my day rate should be?
I am VERY new to contracting and don't know where I stand on requesting an increase in the day rate as a result of the additional responsibilities. Nor do I know what the average day rate should be for this type of role.
