TrisK Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'd try engineering places. Or accounting places. I'm sure they'd have jobs for you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Accounting would be a good move, as always good money in it but you may find you need to get more qualifications for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) You will need additional qualifications to work in accounting. The standard ones are ACA, ACCA, CIMA. All require a series of exams and a certain amount of relevant experience in a finance role. Having a masters in mathematics may exempt you from a couple of exams but I couldn't say for sure... What do you currently do for a day job? Edited June 4, 2014 by uberphil88 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rasslenny Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 im an unqualified quantity surveyor... thats what my dads company does here in the caribbean ... i can do the job as he pretty much taught me everything i needed to know but the actual qualification i do not have i do not mind changing professions to be honest... and its not like im asking for the biggest salary ... just want to know wat websites and stuff i can start looking on to see if i am even eligible for jobs and then figure out if moving is viable and or even makes sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 The big sites are ones like Jobsite, totaljobs or Monster. Alternatively you could always check NHS jobs too - there's always plenty advertised and contrary to common belief, alot of them aren't clinical roles. I'm not sure if there are any websites that specialise in construction jobs but one of the sites above can probably shed some light on it at least - that might be your best bet if that's where your experience lies! I'm also not sure what the 'benchmark' qualification is for quantity surveying, but I know that there is good money in it in the UK so might also be worth looking into Quote Link to post Share on other sites
