They do but a very small number of them. I'm not a great fan of using ITJobswatch as a yardstick but https://www.itjobswatch.co.uk/contra...by=3&orderby=0

So less than half the first page of 110 pages has a median of over £1k. There will certainly be the odd person over 1k when there median can be significantly less but that is likely to be a minority as well, particularly bearing in mind more roles are at or under market rate.

So I think we are all aware there are 1k rates out there but the very low number advertised and experience/seniority needed to attain them then it's a pipe dream for 99.9% of us.

I'm not sure how useful this data is when an Infosec Officer day rate is higher than a CISO or CIO. There seems to be several other similar examples I can see.
