Cool! A job in the Falklands!

And who doesn't like a penguin?

So it's not minimum wage then?

And if an 'accountant' is willing to work for £22k in London, when newly quals earned double that, then I'd question if the accountant is any good. Or if they really are qualified - by qualified I mean ACCA, ACA, CIMA and not AAT

Graduate jobs are paying that (https://uk.indeed.com/Graduate-Accou...eff98855a7e9fc) straight from Uni.

FYI, this is where an accountant would look for a job (https://www.gaapweb.com/searchjobs/?...ocationId=None) GAAPWEB is the IT equivalent to Jobserve

no, an actual accredited accountant, just checked it with him. they've actually found someone that is happy with 22k per year. if you throw in some overtime you'll go below min wage (which I am sure it is expected)

prerogative is strong with you old folks

By 'accountant' he probably means book keeper or accounts clerk. Accountants don't work for minimum wage.

Or he's making it up

I'm not surprised; if there is an accountant willing to work for minimum wage, he or she would have been snapped up by now...

I have a cousin that does recruiting and two weeks ago he was looking for both cleaners and accountants at minimum wage.
Haven't checked with him but probably hasn't filled any of those yet.

West London by the way.

Average earnings have doubled over the past 20 years. Anyone who can't get by on his salary should take some lessons in Financial Planning. I personally don't have a problem

£20 an hour on offer.

Not quite sure if that was the reason for failure. Do you have a source for your figures?

How familiar are you with the 'plutonomy' term? CPI calculations etc?
