About you

UCL MBA students are often senior executives located in all parts of the world, with considerable work experience behind them and spanning a wide range of ages. You will therefore need to have a high level of confidence, experience and a global perspective to be able to effectively relate to MBA students. You'll need substantial experience supporting executive-level clients in a coaching capacity through all aspects of their career planning and development, including navigating challenging professional situations and career changes/transitions.

You should also have experience of developing online learning resources and other careers activities (e.g., workshops/seminars), and be a confident presenter/facilitator. You should be effective as a manager of both projects and people, and ideally would have previous experience of working with MBA students in a business school setting.
