Wages to supervise job

[Thomas123]

What hourly rate would you guys expect to run a job worth circa 200k and 6-8 sparks working for you? Currently getting less than £12 and I'm approved grading.

 

[telectrix]

£20 at least.

 

[dazza1981]

£25-30 p/h

 

[Rockingit]

Depends on many things, but I'd have said the other side of £20-25

 

[Guest77]

A couple of quid above the Technicians rate at least which is around 15 and a half an hour, so around 17-50 ish IMO, plus a van, free use of a mobile phone and company clothing and pension.

And tooleystreet to whack as and when things get on top of you !!!!!

I knew I was being underpaid, but from what you guys have said I'm being made a fool out of. I think it's time to start looking elsewhere.

a year on and its not much better, I'm getting £14.07 an hour and I'm running two jobs within the same building, with a value of £300,000 and £60,000. I've got 9 guys working for me, only one of them is qualified..... Ive got the quals the go for technician grading, I'm half tempted to do it and try to get the rate as the company i work for doesn't pay anything for supervising a job.

Then you should not supervise the job.

I'm not that ****ed off, I just want to get paid a fair rate for what I do.

What a sad indictment of our trade and where it is going. Not sure what the job is Thomas123 but 2 jobs totaling 360K is not an house bash

I have been at the sharp end most of my career delivering projects and jobs but never in all that time have I known so many corners to be getting cut. I realise companies have to go in low to win projects, but there has to be a huge disaster waiting around a corner somewhere

As long as you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got..

time to step out of the comfort zone???

 

[uksparks]

I cannot understand why people complain about being paid pittance, just go at it in your own and earn proper money!

 

[Echo]

Going on your own isn't for everyone, to go it on your own your not just an electrician, your a salesman, a bookkeeper, a negotiated, a manager and on call 24/7. It's not for everyone.

Some of the comments on here regarding money are delusional, should be around the £17.50 mark for supervising if your cards in. A lot of these guys are self-employed. Is your company not JIB?

No not jib, sadly. Yeah some of the hourly rates are unrealistic, I'd love 17.50, do most firms pay that kind of rate for supervising a job on the books?

Any body on here doing the same role as me on here? What kind of rate are you getting?

I don't think it matters what job you do for what company. Everyone pays differently. If you don't like the wages try your luck else where. But remember the grass isn't always greener.
