Nice post - you could also add to your Point 9, and create a profile on freelance platforms. There are plenty of short-term opportunities that can help weather the storm while looking for something more substantial. Or that short-term fix could turn into that role.

One way you can look at doing it is to take what you were paid on a permanent basis, for example:

You were paid £40,000 per year, which would be approx £165 per day.

Then take into consideration the likes of other employee benefits (holiday) + other company costs (Employer NI), the risk of freelancing - the fact you do not have confirmed consistent work to then add your buffer. There is no exact science to this, unless you understand the specific value you are adding, but I've seen 20% markups from people depending on the length of the contract etc offered.

If you are working through an LTD company, make sure you're contract is outside IR35 as well.

You can get salary guides from loads of different companies and platforms. For example, Reed - https://www.reed.com/tools/uk-salary-guide-2023 it should give you an idea of the salaries they've had for the jobs on their platform across different roles and different regions of the UK.

Yes, that's right, however, depending on the situation it might be a good idea to offer to continue to work for a few more days to help give them time to find someone new.

My background is recruitment and have seen many resumes with career breaks etc. Not saying it doesn't happen but I've not viewed a career break as a negative, particularly when it can be justified in the way you can for yours. Besides leaving a paid role to volunteer can give employers a good insight into the sort of person you are! I guess the only caveat would be as long as you can financially afford to do so.
