He guys, been a long time viewer of the forum, but this is my first post!

I'm looking for a bit of advice from some people in the know, regarding Jobs.

I'm a Contractors Quantity Surveyor, working for a large company with 4 years experience, I have been working partime to get my Honours Degree and graduate this summer (I'll be 22). I'm relitively happy in the company at the moment and progressing at a comfortable rate.

However, after I graduate in the summer, I'm unsure whether I want to continue down the Surveying path....the only part of my work I really enjoy is when I'm dealing with financial/comercial negotiating and disputes, but at present I only spend about 20% of my time doing this. The rest is spent doing alot of paperwork and number crunching!

So really, my question is...Has anywhere on here moved from a QS background into anything else? and what?

Or does anyone know, where a QS'ing degree and the skills that come with industry experience, would cross over into another relevant field?
