Work these days is not by course or qualification. While looking for what to do, try to develop yourself if you have the means

What cant maths graduates do? I believe a degree in Maths comes with a high monetary reward. You can work in investment banking as a quant analyst or take up other roles in the investment banking too. Roles Hedge funds,PE, Corporate finance and asset management are desirable for maths grads. You can take the CFA exams to be even more desirable for these jobs. Bsc Maths + CFA would have banks salivating and drooling over you. These positions come with heavy salary as investment Banking and financial analysis is one lucrative field .
You can work as a data analyst or scientist. This field is billed to become the most desirable career in another 3 years as data is the new oil. With your maths degree you can take data science courses on coursera, udemy and data camp. They are very affordable and they possess quality content. Another thing you can do is to síť for the GRE and do a masters abroad via scholarships. You can focus on Data Science + statistics. If you are lucky to study in America, after your graduation you can get plum jobs ať the biggest tech coys in the world as a data scientist.
With your maths degree you can switch to economics. A degree in maths automatically qualifies you for a masters in economics. You can choose to specialise in oil and gas trading.
You can do programming as well.
You can also apply to be a business analyst ať Consulting firms like Mckinsey and BCG. You can do your masters and then a PhD so you can lecture ať the best schools in the world and consult for the biggest companies in the world. Guys with PhDs in maths are demi gods in the west.
The list is quite exhaustive and there is really no limit to what you can achieve with a maths degree. Personally speaking, its a sexy course that sets you apart from the rest. Just look for the sector that suits you and do the needful. Good luck .
