Slide 13 If you are looking to recruit it is worth remembering that people looking for new roles cite their top 3 drivers (after salary): Flexible working hours Pension Good holiday entitlement (+25 days) Attracting Candidates

Slide 14 Contract & Interim Rates Paid £x / day basis Higher risk, higher reward What are you worth? Conversion Rule of Thumb: Divide permanent salary by 100 Then £40k = £400 / day

Slide 15 Contracting versus Permanent Contracting Higher Risk, Less Security No Benefits No Career Development Greater Flexibility Higher Income Broader Experience Permanent Lower Income Less Flexibility Lower Risk, More Security Benefits Career Development Sense of Belonging

Slide 16 Agencies….what to look out for…. Is it a genuine live role? Who is the hiring organisation. Has the agency placed there before? Are they on the Preferred Supplier List? What is the selection process? Have they asked for references…why? Contract roles…agency takes references. Perm role…hiring organisation takes references Using your references just to find new clients? Rate? Have they told you not to discuss rates during interview? Why? Lack of transparency? What is the agency fee?

Slide 17 What do these mean to you? Can you build a decent logically linked plan? Planning skills are poor Application of practical risk management Create a list….then cross my fingers?!

Slide 18 Your career Ensure you have ability to justify your title of Project Manager Recognise the skills of a Project Manager….do you have those skills? Gain appropriate qualifications…APM!
