I'm on a grad scheme working in technology risk assurance for a year now. I don't know if it's worth it sticking to this role, I feel like I am selling myself short here. I want a role where I am more involved in tech, where I have better development and a lot more pay. What are my prospects if I want to jump ship? Is it realistic?
