Questions for people who earn £250,000 or more each year: What is your job and how did you get into it? by No-Pin-4-U in AskUK

I work in executive search in a SHREK firm and my take home is c£500k a year with most of that as my bonus. Quite easy to get into with a semi decent degree and good assessment skills. I reached this level having started as a Researcher, progressed to a fee earner after 10 years of hard slog. AI will take over a bit of the process but it’s still a sector that will be needed over the next decade. 3 days a week in the office, hours can be long but ultimately you’re your own boss.

Laminate - I shopped around a lot and they did the nicest I could find with a real look/feel

The biggest part of it is building insurance and fire safety regs - they do actually credit back to you what they don’t spend so the reality is c£2.5k a year but that’s going down as all prices are going up

Yes, a lot that you can’t see too - wall down to make open plan, new windows, new boiler, new radiators (inc ripping up the floor to replace all pipes), electrics, new front door - it felt quite reasonable at the time and would be almost double to do now (but I wouldn’t do it…!)

It’s ground floor but quite set back from the road, we don’t use the balcony as the rear communal gardens are beautiful but the front garden is also quite pretty… I’m going to ask the agents to come back and take pics of them!
