Public Sector Day Cap?

I would say around £400/day. Do a blank search on jobserve and the mean seems to be around that. Of course it varies a lot, and I am sure many of the higher-paying gigs don't get filled on there, instead hiring someone with a known track record through contacts etc. -
That seems reasonable... But for public and private or just public?Originally posted by GJABS View PostI would say around £400/day. Do a blank search on jobserve and the mean seems to be around that.

Another question, how much in average an agency would charge on top of that average figure of 400?

That's a pretty subjective guess you've made.
Never having been on a day rate that low I'd say it's the far left of the bell curve. That's pretty subjective too.See You Next TuesdayComment

It's not much of a bell curve with a sample of one though - even assuming you are telling the truth about the size of your rate (which you might be).Originally posted by Lance View Postso you don't know.

It’s an average rate for business analysts - we don’t know what you do.Originally posted by Lance View Postso you don't know.
