To ask what job you do if....

[jobbat]

-You earn over 30k
-you can wear whatever you want -as in you don't HAVE to dress smart! So you could wear jeans if you wasn't.

• it's a quiet environment
• you get a lunchbreak

-days only (no shift) -you are not sitting all day but not on your feet either...so a good balance

Thanks in advance...

I'm a lawyer.

Senior management of a charity
I do insist on smart casual no jeans or trainers though

How quiet do you need your quiet working environment to be?

University administration - but pick a non-student-facing role for a quieter working environment.

Business analyst although do spend quite a lot of time sitting

Chartered surveyor, plus also get a car. Appointments in the morning, get back to my home office midday and then complete all my reports. It's also very flexible in that I can do both morning and afternoon school pickups.

Previous job a building surveyor, smart casual own choice. Retrained as a secondary school teacher same dress code. Wear skinny jeans and nice top or smock dresses and tights

Project and facilities Manager - I get to be out and about looking at different project, reviewing issues, sometimes working on building sites (have to wear ppe for those times), meeting people but I can always just close my office door and work quietly when I want/need to.

Estate Manager/Rural Surveyor - managing country estates for wealthy families although I did occasionally take calls on the weekend in emergencies such as a big water leak. Comes with free accommodation and bills paid too.

@Nellle

I meet all but one of your requirements, so you might not be interested but... I'm a teacher.

Guess which requirement I don't meet?! 😂

Primary, far from a quiet environment!

Teacher, rarely sit down. Sixth form - perfect behaviour. Subject - Economics 🤓

I am a lawyer in local government. I fit the criteria with the exception of to much sitting. That said there is the opportunity for site visits, meeting etc and we are encouraged to keep moving for well-being so we have a certain amount of movement. I am currently working from home s on that has decreased but I try to move and stretch every hour or so and take regular breaks. We work flexible hours.

I have all that but I do sit all day. Salar us more than double your criteria. However we can easily take a break to go running or for a nice long walk. Software project manager (work with developers).

Developer/coder/programmer.

Kinda a lot of sitting tho, could get a standing desk...

Civil servant here, and I'm at the scruffy end of the casual spectrum, unless I'm meeting ministers or external stakeholders that day. (and currently wfh, so can even wear jeans to those meetings too). Only thing I don't tick on your list is not sitting down all day, though we can have movable desks so that you can use them as a standing desk for parts of the day.

Software engineer 👌

I once used a desk that had a treadmill attached! 😂

Senior university lecturer.

Accountant/finance manager. Since working from home I sit down a lot though.

Manager at a charity.

Marketing Manager for a national park

Engineer.
Couldn't wear absolutely anything in my workplace - it was vaguely business attire, but very very relaxed business attire. So comfy trousers, flat shoes and a jumper were fine.
Jeans and trainers ok on Fridays.

Housing Officer.

Sitting at a desk the vast majority of the time at the moment due to the pandemic but usually 50/50 office and visits.
Can wear jeans etc as long as they are smart ones - unless I'm in court when I'm expected to dress smart.

Not me, but my other half is a camera man (not currently earning 30k but in the vicinity of and he's at the bottom of the pay scale at the moment).

Family friend is an academic translator and a freelance normal translator, does the odd "on call" night or weekend shift as a phone translator for the NHS but that is out of choice and ad-hoc for when she wants some extra cash.
