"My entry into the minerals surveying sector was a little bit of fate and quite a lot of luck." 🎓 After graduating with a degree in Geography and a Master's in Rural Resources and Environmental Policy, Tamsyn Luggar MRICS returned home to Cornwall unsure of what came next. Her first role involved working on a planning inquiry for a new inert landfill site. When an opportunity arose to join a consultancy of Chartered Minerals Surveyors, she took it and found a profession she has never looked back from. For Tamsyn, becoming Chartered was the natural next step. Having grown up in a family of Chartered Surveyors and having started her career in a Chartered Surveying consultancy, she says it's a decision she "hasn't regretted for one second". Today, she describes surveying as a profession that is "multifaceted", covering a huge breadth of land-related work and allowing people to explore where their passion lies. 🚀 Inspired by Tamsyn's journey?
