- ChuckNorris89 7y agoNice. What kind of contracting gig did you do?
- ownagefool 7y agoDevSecOps consulting for a large brand that was hacked and a bank undergoing a transformation. Managed it for about 2 years, before that the standard rate was £700-£800 p/d. Did have a large transformation under my belt and critical national infrastructure as feathers in my hat.
- partyboat1586 7y agoThat's above market rates. You'd have to be on £1350 a day. Most contracts I see are £450-£750. How did you swing agency / big consultancy rates as a freelancer?
- ownagefool 7y agoI sold myself as a one man consultancy without the land and expand bullshit. I hit £1500 a day, which was the max before you hit a world of bureaucracy. It's a lot easier to sit on about £1000-1200k a day. The intention isn't to brag, it's just to point out there is a market here that can be tapped even if you can't travel to SoCal.
