Long time lurker on this forum, incredibly useful site, now have a question of my own.
I work in banking in a specialism that is in demand. I have been at my gig for 12 months and am considering going perm. I have never had an issue with finding contracts, this is my 3rd, and I have a reasonable war chest (12 months coverage).
I generally prefer my working arrangements as a consultant and he working relationship with my clients has been excellent.
The offers I have in the table are:
Offer 1) At my current client, @550 per day - I have 230 more days guaranteed. The chance of it going beyond this is very slim.
Offer 2) 100k base, plus ~20k flex, hols etc. I'm seriously considering this as at this point in my career if I go up another level on the rung will eclipse my potential daily rates.
Plus we have a child on the wy in 6 months and will be looking at moving (bigger mortgage) within 12.
Thoughts?
