Share your expertise, develop your skills

As a graduate we hope you will stay connected to the Business School. By becoming an active member of your alumni community, you can continue to develop yourself and your career prospects long after you graduate. Maintaining a relationship with the Business School will also give you the opportunity to contribute to and influence its future direction.

Offer career advice 

Mentoring is a great way to connect with current students and provide practical support and advice on developing career plans in different industry sectors. You also benefit by developing your leadership and management skills.

There are many opportunities available including through our Nurturing Talent Mentor Scheme.
