I have met a IT infrastructure civil servant earning a grand a day.

From reading the article it looks like the agency is charging £1,400 per day for him. That is no more than I would expect for a senior consultant in London.

Getting the flights to and from Scotland and London accomodation paid for by the client does strike me as beyond the pale though.

Good luck to em....


Gives me something to aspire to...

He's a CIO, an IT Director. He is not just 'an IT manager'. If he is an interim, £1,000 per day is cheap. The Daily Wail would then just multiply that by 365 for the sake of the story.

If he is working for a consultancy and they have placed him, they could be charging nearer £2k per day.

I suspect the "£350,000" is what the agency is being paid + expenses.

I don't think that is unreasonable.

Alternatively, he is an SCS, a Senior Civil Servant. In that case most of his £350k will be bonus-based and he'll be out on his ear if the agency does not perform.

More worrying is the average salary there: £71,250.

I was more perturbed at not seeing "This would never have happened under the tories" in the comments section. Cyberman is slacking.

I went and checked his membership page to see if he has not been around for a few days and saw:
