‘Pay is poor, commute is lengthy, traffic appalling and parking very expensive’ for Horsham employees
The majority of administrative roles in West Sussex pay £18-20k and not £25k, which is more like London salary for this type of vacancy.
Even then, I have recently been sent administrative support roles in Central London at £22k, so not sure where you are getting your information from.

Hide AdAdministrative support roles are classed as an overhead in the majority of companies and the salaries have not increased within the past ten years.
Businesses in this area repeatedly bemoan the lack of recruits with the relevant skills, but if you are paying wages below the expectation of a highly skilled and experienced employee, then it is not surprising they struggle to fill these positions.
I refuse to work in both Horsham and Crawley areas, as the pay is poor, commute is lengthy, traffic appalling and parking very expensive.
