We really want to move here so I am considering what other career options I may have with my degree and experience. I love being a fire engineer but the desire to return home is strong and I need to do it for my family. Has anyone any advice or experience of switching career with an engineering degree. It could only be a temporary change until a relevant position comes up but I am keen to explore opportunities at this time.
