The graduating Class of 2025 have faced one of the most competitive job markets seen in recent years, yet their determination and adaptability have delivered impressive results. 81% of graduates seeking employment secured a role within three months of completing the programme, proving that the WBS Full-time MBA supports professionals to thrive even in challenging conditions. This year’s outcomes reflect bold career moves: 65% of graduates changed sector, and 43% chose to remain in the UK, while others embraced opportunities across international markets. Technology and Finance were the most popular destinations, closely followed by Consulting and Manufacturing, highlighting the breadth of opportunities available to our graduates. They have secured roles with leading organisations such as Amazon, McKinsey & Company, American Express, Google, and JP Morgan, demonstrating the strength of our employer network and the calibre of talent within our MBA community. Our approach goes beyond academic excellence. We focus on developing the professional skills and leadership capabilities that employers demand.
