The most comprehensive study on freelancer day rates and project lengths in the UK data industry, by the country's leading marketplace of premium talent.
The most common rate for all freelancers operating in this discipline was £301-£350 per day in 2019, a similar level to the overall average of £374 per day. The top 10% of day rates in the discipline was at least £550 per day, indicating that those with specific desired skills or expertise can command a significantly higher day rate. The tase in demand for data and insights across multiple industries, as companies look for data-driven gains, further support the acceleration in rates within this field.
There are several reasons why now might be the time to hire a data freelancer. This includes:
Time — Hiring a freelancer gives you both the flexibility in working hours (evenings and weekends), and the ability to do work at very short notice.
Skills/knowledge — Data freelancers can easily understand and interpret data to help showcase data and make predictions, without the need to hire an industry specific expert. You can also hire a freelancer based on their experience and the industries in which they’ve worked, to help bring more insight to your business.
Ideas — A fresh set of ideas on a problem cannot be underestimated. An advantage of engaging with a freelancer, who does not work for your company, means they won’t have any preconceived notions about how things should or shouldn’t work.
Results Driven — Not only are freelancers very, success is very important to them. They want to provide results on time and within budget, as a big driver of their work is word of mouth and recommendations.
