    £1,400/day x 365 days/year = £511,000/year
    However, most people aren't going to work 7 days a week.

    £1,400/day x 220 days/year = £308,000/year
    That's probably a more realistic starting point, then you'd have to deduct the company's running costs before anything can be taken as salary/dividends.
    Outside rates also mean + vat. Anyone with a PA is not on this bulletin board I would imagine.

        Advert: "...must be eligible for SC clearance..."

        Agent: "sorry I won't forward your CV because you don't have existing SC clearance"

        Me: "but your ad says "must be eligible for clearance", not "must have"...

        Agent: "yes, we have to word it like that"

          I do miss some aspects of no longer working down there.

            I'm 100% WFH, and have been for over 10 years (well before it got popular with unprofessional shirkers and the like).
            no downturn here i'm happy to say.
