£500-£550 is average for my sector

so you don't know.

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.

It’s an average rate for business analysts - we don’t know what you do.

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).

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?

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

What’s the ‘average’?

What I’m earning. More or less.

Any other crimes you fancy fessing up to?

No, I’ve never worked for them. I have done fairly well by coming in after them and fixing their messes. No, there’s someone else on here, if only their user ID was a hint at their company name...

[CryingSheep]

What’s the ‘average’?

Exactly my question... Then I can tell you if I'm below or above average...

It is interesting, isn't it, that the only people on here who mention what their rate is, are those who say they're on much greater than the average. You never hear from those who say they're on much less than the average.

If only there was someone who had worked at E&Y, Deloitte and PWC as a manager/senior manager who might know the answer to that.

Public Sector Day Cap?

Here you go....

Cost of Employment + working expenses for the role in question + Management overheads + 40% markup is the starting point. It's not a rate card as such, although they will have standard costs available to the bid preparation teams, if only because many clients want a breakdown

However the bid and the manpower costs are not done as a list of individual items; its rather more complicated than that. So the stated detail and the actual bid price may be at some variance, buried in the documentation.

And if there are Partners on site, they get paid a whole other way so will effectively set their own income.
