BA you're looking at 500ish, the rates have dropped slightly of late.Originally posted by 2BIT View Postdoh! sorry didn't read your post properly - BA? 500-600? I believe I can get 500+ as a dev in that areaComment

I got contacted about a Solvency II role the other day. Training & Comms role. £700pd. Couldn't apply as I've just agreed a new extension with my current ClientCo.
Plus, I've only got a very limited understanding of Solvency II and I think the fact that that role is just over double my current daily rate probably means it was always going to be over my level.Comment

Hot area but you need to be an Actuary to really understand it IMO. Other than that if you have some experience working in the finance function of an insurer then anyone with generic PM/BA/Dev skills would be able to do it."A life, Jimmy, you know what that is?

not necessarily, like freamon says there are many kinds of roles, the heavy lifting roles will involve actuarial science or banking regulation knowledge but there are many other roles that would contribute to a project to become compliant and the speed at which the companies need to become compliant means you may well get a good rateOriginally posted by GillsMan View PostI got contacted about a Solvency II role the other day.
