Thanks for your comments, Marc.

a) The accommodation is not in Croydon, nor was it mentioned that it was anywhere in the offer.

b) I think you could agree that accommodation inside brand new 5 bedroom houses in the SE28 region exceed the £100-200 range for rent. And I would doubt they include bills. I think it would be fair to say that the net pay the candidate will receive is that of someone on £20-22k living in this area.

c) You're right, this certainly isn't normally something you'd see attached to a job offer, and this is no ordinary job offer. The fact accommodation is provided means the job is open to anyone in the country.

It is a rare opportunity and there are many people that would give an arm and a leg for an entry into the games industry. Demand also outweighs supply in the Media production industry, as demonstrated by the vast majority of jobs on crew boards with "Lo/No/Deferred Payment", based on the fact so many people want experience.

This job gives the candidate the somewhat rare opportunity to use and manage a vast range of very expensive HD equipment, with trips across the globe to cover and take-part in lavish events - this point alone is enough to warrant such a salary.

d) Do you not agree it is better to avoid ambiguity and state the position comes with travel expenses paid rather than leave it vague?
