I get on extremely well with my colleagues and those that work around me. We are always bonding with each other via team lunches and events, as well as the regular Friday evening at the pub.

With regards to their backgrounds, because my area of business is quite mathematical there isn’t a huge range of different courses represented. However there is a common misconception that my role is only open to those studying mathematics at university, which is not true. Other courses represented around me include Physics, Engineering and Economics amongst others.

You do not need a mathematics degree but you may need a mathematical element to your degree.
