This probably won't help as much contractors who want to charge £500+ per day but any large reduction of a gap in pay would have positive effect.

40K is graduate salary straight out of university in an IB

above market rate?
Well, we probably pay market rate - however on top of that there are valuable perks - interesting job, local office so small commute (that's worth a lot - I know I had to drive 120 miles per day on M6 in my previous job...), also a chance to work with some of the greatest minds of the modern era

£30k is what they advertise on the "learn IT" TV adverts on daytime TV. I have no idea what the averages are, but remember how skewed they are by London and the South East. Where you're based is perhaps more representative, would you mind saying roughly what you pay your permie developers - IIRC you have some - if it's OK to do so?

I remember back in early 2000 when I got my work permit unofficial rule of thumb was that getting it in IT field meant at least £30k salary, which was not too bad 10 years ago given current inflation

Still, £40k is a decent salary for nearly any kind of job outside the south-east, certainly not far off. The bobs have to be a significant saving to be worth the hassle don't they?

£40k is not a bad limit even if some creative accounting factors into this food/rent/etc even though IMHO £40k must mean £40k salary with all normal income/NI deductions.
