How is it possible to land a job in the financial field after college, that is not at a desk all day? I want to still be active or at least move around/travel for the job.

I'm very active, enjoy being outdoors, but I also have a knack for financial advising, and dealing with money. I recently job shadowed a financial department for a construction company and found the office work all day, just is not for me, Is there any way I can work financially like that while not being stationary?

Lots of opportunities to have a job in this field that isn't based solely in one location and/ or offers you the opportunity to still be mobile. Consulting would be an obvious answer given the need to travel to different clients on a regular basis. However, investment/ financial advisors are often also mobile visiting clients to offer advice/ meet with potential new clients. I would keep an open mind as you look at your options since increasingly even jobs within an FS company can require a degree of travel or mobility. This is usually document in the description for the job. Great time to be looking in this space - so much change!

Working for a consulting firm like Deloitte lets you travel globally while providing financial advice to businesses.
Thank you comment icon Yes, Consulting will be a great option for you as it gives you the flexibility of following your passion on work - As an example at Deloitte Consulting, we serve many different client to help with their finance functions either as process transformation, technology automation, controls etc. That work requires meeting/traveling to different geographies, and meeting new people all the time.
