You don't necessarily have to be at director level but would need to be pretty senior in a functional role or head of a team.
    Yeah, I am a head of one department and a senior dev in another at the same time. It is a fairly unique role but it is very interesting.

      Outside of the SE so:

      £75k
      Bonus
      Pension 5%
      Holiday pay
      Career plan
      Work Life balance
      Within 5 mile from home

      Below the above level I would rather contract inside for £500 a day.

          Great answers guys, so in summary contracting is ded and its a race to the bottom!

          Glad I'm diversifying my skills then in niche areas.
