Hi Mcgeever

I thought exactly as you did about HSE as it always seamed to get in the way of having fun. But the reality is simply that being double hatted gives you a good back hand. You don't have to look at HSE. If you really want to be at the top with big money then try Info Sec.

Do a simple exercise. Goggle security jobs and count how many and what quality there are, lets say all jobs over 45-50k, then do the same for HSE especially in construction or on international projects and or Info Sec. You will be surprised at the amount of HSE or Info Sec jobs there are available compared with General Corporate Security jobs. The numbers speak for themselves.

what ever you do you need to aim to be sitting at senior/middle or senior management within 4-8 years. Faster if possible.

Have a good weekend ..... Hoveton
