Problem with this is most lads starting out especially career change hero's think they are worth a lot more than they are so when I did this once it becomes a nightmare telling someone who has only cs30-31 from last month that they ain't worth that money but I'd start you out on less but that not to say if your good you won't be on more than advertised in a years time.
Also I've found as soon as you talk money someone who's paying £800 a month rent for a single room in central London shout's up he wouldn't get out of bed for what we earn upt North and live fairly on and it just descends into a undervalued staff debate.

If you paid someone who could run your sites and step in anywhere if needed £200 per day on the books.Do you think you could make up the difference between what you want to pay and £200 by chasing other opportunities?

 

I used to have to offer a £45k package to get help here in Norway.That was for someone with a couple of years experience. 

 

Good contract climbers are on about £600 per day Gross in Oslo.

I had the best response when I included the wage in the advertising.

 

It looks to me as if you want someone who possesses all the attributes capable of running their own firm/ sub contracting.

 

The wage is going to have to reflect this.

 

100 hours a week, loads of stress and minimum wage it is then!

Don't need someone to run sites as either I do that myself or my existing team leader will do that and if you think after 2 years in the industry 80% of lads would have the experience to fully understand and complete most of the work we do without supervision you'd be very wrong

At that money why the hell am I still in this country !
But then again what's the cost of living in Oslo compared to rural north Yorkshire.
Average pint costs....
Apartment or small house rent....
It's all relative as is a very defanit north south division here.
We worked for a woman who just sold a 3 bedroom townhouse in London that she'd inherited for 1.8 million and moved up here a bought a 5 bed farm house and stables with nearly 30 acres of grazing for horse's with plenty of change to live off for the next 10 years or more.

£3.20 for a Guinness in local here £2.95 in spoons if you want to risk it.
But just to remind everyone I'm talking PAYE not self employed which you lot are on about

£4.70 here, and PAYE wages ain't no great shakes. I wasn't having a poke Jon. If I was in your game in your area I'd jump at the opportunity to work alongside you.
