A contract Oracle DBA working in the Square Mile could expect between 40-60 UKP (about $64-$96) /hr. That's a lot of money, but there are no corporate benefits (training, healthcare, etc) and new laws mean that there are fewer tax breaks to working like this. Having said that, lots of people just like the flexibility and variety of working somewhere new every 6 months.
