Liverpool Business School careers support

Every year over 100 students from our School find quality work placements with prestigious companies, such as Disney, Bentley, Microsoft, Warner Bros and Unilever. The placements are optional, but are strongly encouraged as they can help you become a highly competitive candidate once you have graduated.

In addition to your degree, we also give you the opportunity to gain extra qualifications, such as:

• CIMA Sage for Business Studies students
• CFAB for Accounting and Finance students
• PRINCE2 for Public Relations students
• Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) Professional Diploma and the Institute of Direct and Digital Marketing’s (IDM) On-Line Digital Marketing Award for Marketing students
• Microsoft Office Specialist certifications

Our School has an excellent Placement Support Unit, which is dedicated to finding students placements. The Placement Support Unit could also help equip you with the skills you need to impress during rigorous application processes, from offering you CV and application form guidance to running mock interviews and providing psychometric test support.

Thanks to our relationships with key professional bodies we can help you gain student membership to groups such as Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (the world’s largest professional body of management accountants), ICAEW (for accountancy and finance professionals), CIPD (the professional body for HR and people development) and the Chartered Institute of Marketing (the leading international body for marketing and business development).
