I am an IT Manager (geek alert) for a one of Scotlands larger law firms; I am based in Glasgow. I've been there for 12 years and love my job. I have a great team of people who work with me and that makes it much easier.
During the week I live in the city centre but at weekends (and as often as possible) I escape to my house in the Highlands of Scotland. _________________ Yesterday is history, Today is for living, Tomorrow is a gift |

I'm a Facilities Management consultant.... "a what?", I hear you say???
very broad job description for a very broad industry...
-I manage the procurement and evaluation of new service contracts on behalf of my clients,
-Project manage minor construction works,
-Asset Life cycle costing and modelling,
-Survey buildings and assets,
-Compile and implement maintenance strategies and specifications,
-Audit maintenance activities,
-Implement maintenance-based repair systems,
-Permit to work systems,
-Business process mapping,
-Large Estate development planning and rationalisation,
-Performance and compliance monitoring....
hello...... are you still awake at the back???
Very diverse and good fun, if not very busy. I enjoy it as it gets me out and about from nuclear submarine bases to council houses in Glasgow...
major stumbling block for me is my young-ish looks and clients thinking I dont have any experience and how could they possibly listen to someone as young as me
good thing is my background is a trade (electrician), so once they find that out, they tend to react to me differently as opposed to some uni graduate straight out of class... although I am that as well!!!
...ok...
NEXT! |
ROSS ! I think FM consultant would have done !!!

So what IS your handicap Geri ?
Ross,your job sounds much more interesting than mine-when we go out for the night i seem to spend my time checking for dirty cutlery and poor head retention on my pint (oh er missus) As soon as someone in the pub asks what i do for a living the conversation STOPS so i now say im a GP as most people prefer to hold a conversation about knocking a ball around a field!!!! pmsl !!!!!!
sorry Geri ,couldnt help myself
