Fraser Turner
Tell us what you do for a living?
I’m a Hedging Consultant in Global Real Estate.
 
Are you doing what you thought you’d be doing after leaving school?
No.
 
What’s been your inspiration – what’s pulled you forwards and into your current role?
Mainly chance more than anything! 
 
What would you say is your biggest achievement to date, the thing you’re most proud of? Professionally or personally!
First Class Honours in my Masters in Chemistry.
 
Was there a particular teacher, or a moment at school that particularly inspired you?
Mr George.
 
How important do you think your school days were in shaping who you are today?
Fairly important.
 
What’s your work:life balance like? How important is that to you?
Fairly good for a finance role, and it’s definitely very important to me.
 
What advice would you give to today’s students who may be struggling to choose which path to take beyond school?
Don’t stress too much about it, you have plenty of time to make up your mind, just focus on whatever you are passionate about and work to put yourself in a strong academic position going forward.
 
Finally, do you have a favourite quote, expression or mantra which inspires you to keep going?
We know not where we’re going,
Circumstance will decide.
But it’s not the destination,
It’s the glory of the ride.
