    I'm a sales administrator for a freight company. I do telesales, open accounts, data entry for consignments for the trailers every night.. the list of what I do goes on and on.

    I want to find a job I can make a career out of but can't decide what I want to do. When I left school I wanted to be a teacher but decided to pack my A Levels in cos I couldnt be arsed. I'm toying with going back to college part time next year once Ive got no debt but Im not sure what I want to do

    Wholesale energy markets. Put (very) simply, I look at the trading rules between generators/gas producers, and the suppliers that joe public buys their gas and electricity from. Also look at market developments, government initiatives and European directives, renewables development etc. Report on stuff like the British Energy collapse, why it collapsed, its effects on wholesale market liquidity etc.

    Very difficult to explain to someone who isn't in the industry!

    Sorry! Would be quite interested to work for someone like that though, on the energy side, writing responses to government papers etc from the environmental point of view. I do stuff like that anyway, but not from the environmental side. Can't make it biased due to our client base, though we do have a lot of clients who are on the renewables side.
