    Hi

    Im currently living in Ireland but was thinking of relocating to UK to get some experience as things are very slow here

    Can you please advise would I comfortably live on salary i could expect around 25,000 for junior system administrator role?

    Cost of living here is very high was in london recently and much cheaper than my city which is a small city in Ireland

    Thanks
    Noel

    I think you'll be lucky to get £25k for a junior role - I'm having to look at salaries that low for IT Manager !

    Probably (depending on your experience) £14-18k is more realistic in the current job market.
