Hi,
I am in a big dilemma and need some guidance.
I am an IT professional with nearly 20 years experience and earn £82K as permanent staff in Scotland. I live with my family ( wife and 2 young kids ). We are planning to move closer to London in near future and confused whether I should take up a contract role or stick with Permanent job.
I have done some research and if I stay as permanent staff I think I can get around £90K to £100K as base salary with a new permanent job near London.
If I choose contracting I believe that I would get around between £450 to £500 per day for my line of expertise.
Both the above options will include reasonable travel away from my base location. I am confused which option to go for. Whether it will be better to go for contracting or should I stick with permanent.
Any inputs/guidance/advice is much appreciated.
Thanks
