Ahh an FTC, a permi but with a fixed end date. Surprisingly not an oxymoron.

For a finance house, not DVLA...

Usually they run the model of:
- 1/3 bod salary,
- 1/3 back-office headcount, assets depreciation, equipment, rent, employee finding fee etc
- 1/3 profit.
*there might be some leeway but limited by bod downtime, relocation costs, visa costs etc.

So minimum a consultancy would go for is at least 3x min salary a bod would take.
40k x 3 = 120k / 228 = £526pd

Or at least that is what I've heard.

Well he's contacting you isn't he.

Maybe he's looking for some idiot that posts everything in professional forums only to have them constantly moved to general as they don't have the common sense to work out where it should go.

Harsh, but fair observation.

I do often wonder what sort of candidates they get for these sort of roles?

£39k was a lot more than I was getting in my little wind down to retirement job baffling the hoi polloi with electronics.

It's Swansea, boyo, there's tidy then, what did you expect?

[elsergiovolador]

Roles with rates like this I have seen filled with people from the new EU countries who had no experience working in the UK and needed some "history" in their CVs. After a year or two they would have moved on to something better paid.

or
It's in Swansea.

Even if you work remotely, you'd still feel strange that your data VPNed from there.

And in the teeth of a massive unemployment shock. 39k p.a. is about 75th centile.

Neah, the gov won't let that happen. Think people have started to wise up and they'll start going after the establishment.
They'll throw bulltulip jobs at them, COVID tracers at 27£/h, brexit paper pushers looking after imports etc...

Otherwise you'll get plenty of these erected:

Wonder what is worse...
FTC that you know it ends on a certain date but with a bit more rights in between
or
a perm role with limited to no rights that you can get fired anytime.

Inside?

This is an advert for Infosys/wipro to provide cheap resources. Who knows they will engage in a bidding war and bring the costs down.
