@ACD1 - Cost of living in Australia is higher than NY?!

like

Anomaly is 70% Australian btw.

Director of what? Fishbowl has reinforced for me that creatives are making way more than Strat at the same level... (no hate, I know it’s the way the world works!)

I also want to know director of what. I don’t even know what that title means alone.

I've done that move. Cost of living is about 20% more in Australia than NYC - everything from MacBooks to Big Macs. So factor that in.
But salaries tend to be higher there, too.
Sydney is especially expensive. Melbourne is cheaper, at least in rent. My one bedroom in Sydney was $2500 a month.

Sorry for not being clear as I think titles are different here as well. Director of a division on account service side. Eg consumer brand or wellness department within an agency. Essentially responsible for all facets of that business - financials, client service, new business development, team management Not sure what you would call that role in the US

Director OP to me that sounds like a VP account director or an svp account director, depending on exactly how much client business $$$, how many direct reports, etc.
That would put you in my estimation ranging 170k-220k. If you can get a client sector fit you can probably charge a premium.
What sector are you directing?

Health and wellness

@SC1 yes. Most parts. Rent in Sydney may be similar to manhattan or Williamsburg, but I found cheaper rent in fort greene than Sydney.
Food is more. Electronics are more. Clothes are about the same. Transit is a bit cheaper. It might even out, but I found Sydney more expensive.

Email snezna@me.com. Be keen to chat FCB1

Hi
I have an interview scheduled with infosys. My CCTC is 16 and holding an offer will infosys be able to provide at least my current ctc.... Yoe 3

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?
