How much would you need to go permie, seriously?

It's true that a large majority of the highest paid roles are in London but there are some regional hotspots. I've worked in the likes of Cambridge, Milton Keynes and Luton which are all in the top dozen or so UK cities with highest average earnings and have several large FTSE 250/Fortune 500 type companies. You don't necessarily have to be at director level but would need to be pretty senior in a functional role or head of a team.

Yeah, I am a head of one department and a senior dev in another at the same time. It is a fairly unique role but it is very interesting.

I'm looking at a permie role. Typically I made 500 an day, but the market sucks in frontend.

How much would you need to go permie, seriously?

Outside of the SE so:

£75k
Bonus
Pension 5%
Holiday pay
Career plan
Work Life balance
Within 5 mile from home

Below the above level I would rather contract inside for £500 a day.

Great answers guys, so in summary contracting is ded and its a race to the bottom!

Glad I'm diversifying my skills then in niche areas.
