EMEA co-ordinator for a very larger cloud computing company.

Involved in making simulators for drilling holes

Love this job description. Got visions of some bloke making power drill noises as he moves his arms slowly towards a wall.

Commercial Strategy Manager for a large infrastructure & IS programme at a big utility company. Want to run a bike shop though.

Oceanographer. Product Manager for an instrumentation manufacturer.

I spend most days standing around on street corners.
I don't earn very much.
Chugger?

No, would it help if I add I don't wear any knickers?

Bike messenger.

A one-time marine biologist, I now spend most of my time getting people to talk with each other so they make better (less bad? good?) decisions.

Most of the time, great fun. Not so fun when doing stoopid workloads due to inability of clients to see that a quinquennial cycle comes around, oooh, about... every - five - freakin' - years - surprise!!

I'm a chemistry professor. Organic chemistry mainly - My lab tries to discover new ways of making molecules.

Lots of engineeringy ones on here.. interesting.

Got to be from up North then

Marketing Analyst, which at the moment means spending lots of time trying to get reports out of a newly installed CRM system. Money isn't too good but it is interesting at the moment.

100!!

I'm good at counting things 🙂

I sell and support the computers that garages use to fix your over complicated technical nightmares of cars, trucks, bikes, tractors even jet skis.... Interesting and frustrating and why I love bikes, cos they're simple compared to cars...

nice to see so many nurses and social worker type people on here too, even if they are all NHS/public sector scum, you dirty scummy lovely caring people!

Currently doing a PhD in bio-mechanical engineering. If anyone's got a job for me in two years time or needs some tutoring, let me know.

I only work from 9-3....

A thankless task for minor ducats.

There's more medical staff than IT people.
Bang goes another STW stereotype.

Another of those overpaid, over pensioned NHS types. 6 years at Uni, 10 years postgraduate training, 15 years of continuing education so far. Not an easy career change either way, in or out.

Yes PhilC people on here seem to be in IT, engineering or NHS! I'm a family support worker, I work with children in care for an Independent Fostering agency. Looking to study to be a social worker. Used to manage a record label, so an interesting career change for me - I can recommend them!

Royal Navy marine engineer, I spend my time trying to keep my ship working and the lights on.

Graphic Designer, Web Designer, Brand and Marketing Consultant, general purveyor of new trousers for Emperors. Bit of video work, photography and copywriting thrown in too. Really varied, really enjoy it, pay is quite good.

I appreciate I'm going to end up on the 'B' ark, but I can always fall back on my Computer Science degree and maybe solve some of the world's real problems again...

Gentleman Artisan.

*Museum chippery on a freelance basis*

I read, interpret, and write about late-antique and early-medieval Greek and Latin texts.

So when a thread appears about religion on here, I keep my mouth shut. Best to do that when you actually know something about a subject. 😉

I recruit NHS staff, and also dismiss NHS staff. I'm very busy dismissing NHS staff at the moment. Mostly the rubbish ones who can't come to work because they are 'ill' and the ones that are just plain rubbish at their jobs.....in a small way i'm helping my Trust to save £47,000,000 in budget cuts.

I'm an executive search person so basically a recruiter. It's very, very busy would you believe.

Aw come on, I'd love to hear it!

double glazing/ curtain walling installer. Hate glass with a passion 😀

Saxonrider - British Library?

Line Controller - London Underground.

Don't like it!

I design mobile phone networks - if you make a 3G call in pretty much any West African capital, there's a fair chance I'll have designed (part of) the network it gets carried over...

Design and program fruit machines. Love it.

Love this job description. Got visions of some bloke making power drill noises as he moves his arms slowly towards a wall.

Think bigger drills, think 30,000 feet deep.

IT Director for an aerospace manufacturer. I quite enjoy my job actually.

Interesting - what software do you use thebrick ?

I what qualifications do you have ? Im thinking of going back to uni to do a masters in drilling or reservoir engineering

Surgical rep - I love the smell of burning flesh 😯

Soon to be ex- ITU nurse, going into Occ Health, woohoo no more nights, weekends or other peoples shit, piss or vomit - what's not to like? Just doing my bit to bring the country further to its knees financially, I thank you.

Valleydaddy - I'm with you on the smell of burning flesh. It's grand.

National Sales Manager for a well know bicycle distributor, you'll never guess which one though.

I get to deal with you lot all day and somehow still seem to enjoy it 🙂

I'm yet another drain on the public purse!

I'm an ambulance technician, but one who rides a bike rather than driving the big yellow taxi 😆

💡 *runs off to Google "richie"* 💡

Its the companies software own, the main model is a mix of FORTRAN and C++ then some other stuff written in VB that some other developers deal with. I'm newish so only just getting to grips with it myself. Just been customising the some software for some clients. Even thought the model is largely written every operators rig operates slightly different with slightly different requirements.

I'm an applied mathematician, the other modellers are engineers or physicists. Pay is not the great tbh but prob just the firm I'm working for. Probably a bit different if you were working for an oil company as a reservoir engineer.
