Matt has been to NWRUG in the past and is in my experience a nice guy.

“is fair” is rather subjective here, it’s about £100 lower than the ITJobsWatch 
estimate for contractor rates in the UK* and it’s use suggests that the rate is 
lower because of the position being remote. In my view the logic behind that 
statement doesn’t hold up. You’re getting someone to do a job for you, are they 
doing less of the job because they’re remote? Are they only working for 4 hours 
a day because of the proximity of the fridge and Xbox?

*UK excluding London average daily rate was about £400-£425 for Ruby 
contractors in 2015

Will.
