Healthcare application integration; tying departmental clinical systems to a central health information system (HIS) as well as integrating applications from multiple facilities. More often longer term projects than a different site each week.

Federal Grants Program Manager. I travel about 50K miles per year, visiting federal grantees to provide technical assistance, oversee program development/implementation and ensure that dollars are being utilized appropriately. One of the great things about my job is that the U.S. gov't has grant programs in all 50 states and the territories. So while many people are stuck visiting the same big cities over and over again for conferences and meetings, I've also seen places like Zuni, NM; Glenwood Springs, CO; Lubec, ME; and Nome, AK. Some people might count that as a minus, but I feel incredibly privileged to have seen so much of our country and so many interesting places.

I'm a construction manager for a large land development firm. We have ongoing projects throughout the world, but I primarily cover the NY metro, Boston metro and DC metro areas. I cringe when I think of ever having to go back to an 8 to 5 desk job.

Aid worker, traveling often but with the cheapest possible tickets and a laughably low budget. So imagine how grateful I am to FT members for all the stuff I learned this year. The perks do make a big difference.

I'm a jewelry appraiser, sales trainer and retail consultant specializing in Caribbean duty-free jewelry markets. I fly about 50 segments per year, many of them short hops on American Eagle.
I am currently hiring gemologists and goldsmiths for the St Thomas, Aruba and Jamaican markets.
