Assumptions
What sits inside each figure.
UK in-house cost
Base salary at UK market rate, employer national insurance, pension contribution, recruitment fee amortised over two years, equipment, software licences and a share of workspace cost.
BE managed cost
One monthly fee per seat, inclusive of salary and employment costs, management, recruitment, workspace, equipment and continuity cover. No placement fees.
What is excluded
Your own management time, bonus and equity schemes, and any client-specific tooling or travel. These sit outside the comparison on both sides.
Figures are indicative market rates for planning purposes and are not a quotation. Your written proposal confirms final costs against the roles, seniority and location mix you require.
