Advice please, moving to the UK.

[Donkeydaz]

Hey guys.

I am am a self employed electrician from the island of Guernsey, small island in between England and France. I have been going for my self since October last year and charge £24 an hour. The normal going rate over here for an electrician is anything between £25-£40 an hour and working for someone the average wage an hour is about £16 an hour.

In the next month or so I am looking at moving over to the uk to an area south east of England, West Sussex.
I am just curious what is the average going rate for a self employed sparky and what is the average rate working for someone. I haven't looked into anything yet, it's been a kind of last minute decision to move.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated, I will be looking at working for someone when I get there and look into going self employed again.

I am recently qualified 2 years ago and hold all recent qualifications.

Many thanks.

Give them a chance trev they haven't said anything about your list yet . Their platform at the moment isn't that big
Hmmm the communist party doesn't seem to be doing that well at the moment

And if every one voted national front and they got in on a landslide the government is so slow to act that us cannon fodder would not see much difference anyway

Is there a difference ?
Like a conservative and a ----
One party is full of fools and the other party is the one to vote for ,but which is which

Jdm when us right get in power I'll see you get a good job in the camps cos even if your misguided ,I like you

Trevor not sure your right about the tailors nowdays . There doesn't seem a lot of difference between either

Jdm when us right wing get in power I'll see you get a good job in the camps cos even if your misguided ,I like you

Then you can try and Multi quote

Probably, he is a tory. A slightly left wing one but a tory none the less.

I'm just bumping some of the older threads in the general electrical forum that had a lot of replies. They might not be current topics, if they're not, just ignore them and they'll soon drop off the list. If you DO wish to add a reply and get the conversation going again, feel free to do so. Your input might help somebody else in the future.
