Enhance your career prospects

Co-Founder, Mac+Moore

"My experience at Loughborough was pivotal in determining the direction of my career so far and I'd absolutely recommend both the department experience and the campus experience to prospective students. Having the freedom to explore various different areas of study during my UG degree allowed me to sharpen my skills in critical thinking, develop my own point of view and have the space to immerse myself in areas of literature that I find most interesting.

I am now a published poet with a host of spoken word performances under my belt. Since graduating, I have set up my own successful brand consultancy, Mac+Moore. We have clients such as Sky, Unilever and TfL on our books as well as disruptive challenger brands in the tech and media space."

Country Coordinator for Corporate Communications and Brand Management, Bosch Malaysia

"The variety of styles that we got to experience with different professors definitely left a lasting mark. It moulded us into more adaptable students and broadened our learning horizons. Loughborough is pretty much a second home for me, even till this day. I am based in my home country, Malaysia, but I do try to visit as often as I can.

Shortly after graduation, I started what turned out to be a life changing role with Bosch. Thus far, I have had the humble privilege of establishing a multinational company's corporate communications department from ground zero. The role brought me across continents to Africa, Middle East and Asia as the company has presence in 27 countries."

Deputy Head of Digital, 10 Downing Street

"I enjoyed the variety of what we could study at Loughborough, you could focus on areas you were interested in quite quickly. I also had some amazing lecturers, one which helped inspire my dissertation.

The thing I love most about my job is making a difference. Throughout all my government roles be it business, the PMs agenda, the economy or education, I get to work on areas that change lives every day. It isn't just about hawking some product but the things we get to communicate affect lives across the country so it’s crucial we get it right."

Police Constable, West Midlands Police

"I am currently a PC for West Midlands Police. The training is intense and required two years to complete, with an initial 3-month classroom environment and the remainder being operational. Whilst operational I had to complete a portfolio demonstrating I was competent in all areas of policing which required well over 100 essay-type documents being submitted for review, so I tapped into my coursework writing experiences at Loughborough. Once I passed my probation, I elected to stay on Emergency Response as I felt this is where you build your foundations as a police officer. As a response officer I get sent to quite literally anything: be it domestic violence, mental health, burglaries, assaults, sudden deaths, shop thefts. I could go on. I have recently completed my training to be able to carry a taser, and have my police driving course coming up which should be fun!"

Football Relations Executive, The Premier League

"My whole experience at Loughborough prepared me well for a career in top-level sport. From seeing and interacting with elite athletes on campus to attending lectures from world-leading professors, the whole environment and culture is of the highest standard.

After graduating, I started working for The Football Foundation, a sports charity which funds grassroots facilities. From there, I moved to the Premier League, initially working on player registrations and contracts before moving to the Business Intelligence team.  I currently work in the Football Department."
