Enquire to study in the UK 
Pivotal, instrumental, and transformative — these are the words Bayes Business School’s MBA students often use to describe their experience. For Ginelle Reed, a 2023 graduate of the Full-time MBA programme, these words couldn’t be more accurate.
She pursued an MBA, intending to relocate to Europe and explore new career opportunities. Uncertain about which industry to transition into, she saw the programme as a chance to gain clarity while strengthening key skills.
With many options in Europe to choose from, Bayes — one of the few business schools worldwide to hold the “triple crown” accreditation — stood out to Ginelle for several reasons. It has high ROI — ranking first in London for value for money and graduate employment within three months. And staff didn’t treat Reed like just another face on the application list.
“Whenever I communicated with Bayes, they cared about who I was, my goals, and my overall experience,” she says.
Academic excellence was another decisive factor. “Bayes has a really strong reputation for strategy, which is what I wanted to continue doing, particularly product strategy,” she says. “I liked the programme’s structure, and the range of electives was attractive. At other business schools, I saw they moved quickly through certain subjects, but at Bayes, they dive deep into core topics. They ensure you walk away having learnt as much as possible.”
High-impact practical learning for professionals
The full-time, one-year MBA programme — is intensive and hands-on, balancing theory with real-world application. Through lectures, workshops, and projects, you’ll gain the skills to thrive in competitive environments, whether in the City of London or globally. A key part of the programme is working closely with companies to tackle challenges, allowing students to apply their knowledge meaningfully.
Here, you will learn how to engage with businesses — reaching out, building relationships, negotiating outcomes, and delivering solutions. This approach ensures you’ll develop the confidence and competence to navigate increasingly complex problems.
“Experiential learning is everywhere in the MBA curriculum from the very beginning with the Strategy project to the very end with their Business Integration Project and their International Consultancy Week,” says Laura Raznick, Head of MBA Careers. “We want our students to get a top job perhaps more than they do, and we do everything we can to equip them for getting there.”
Reed could apply what she learned immediately in her new role at Eurostar, making an impact from day one.
“I enjoyed the organisational behaviour module, and I also took a change management elective. It’s been invaluable for me, given my current role,” she says. “I could draw on those modules because we looked at how you handle organisations and their people post-merger. It helped me understand where to be sensitive, how to work with people, and how to function in an organisation that’s still trying to figure out how they will achieve their goals.”

Personalised career coaching for lasting impact
As a Bayes MBA student, you start your career journey even before classes begin, thanks to the online Career Accelerator Programme. This resource helps you define career aspirations and understand how the MBA can enhance your professional profile. Once the programme officially starts, you’ll dive into the Career Impact and Employability Module, a credit-bearing course that is fully integrated into the academic curriculum — making Bayes the only UK business school to embed tailored, accredited, career-focused education directly into its degree programmes. This ensures you graduate not just with knowledge, but with the skills and confidence to navigate job markets and seize new opportunities.
The module focuses on three key areas: strategic career management, leadership development, and leadership communication. These elements help you take charge of your professional growth and build competitive talent profiles. The full-time MBA’s Achieving Your Potential Programme further sharpens self-awareness and helps you enhance your impact in different settings.
Just ask Kai Li Loh, Class of 2020, who is now a senior consultant at Lumanity. “The careers team helped me clarify my specific goals,” Loh says. “Having that clarity brought purpose to my entire year at Bayes.”
Beyond classroom activities, each student is matched with a dedicated career advisor and coach. These are highly experienced talent management professionals from diverse industry sectors. Using deep insights into what recruiters across various industries seek, they provide one-on-one coaching to refine CVs, perfect interview skills, and explore tailored career opportunities. Whether it’s a promotion, a new role, or a new venture, this personalised approach ensures every student has a structured and strategic path tailored to their path to success.
Stronger networks, better opportunities
Bayes’s reputation and extensive network are key in helping students secure job opportunities after graduation. The Corporate Engagement Team collaborates with alumni and industry leaders to ensure the MBA programme stays aligned with market trends and employer expectations. Through sector-focused overviews, job market updates, and company presentations, students gain real-time insights into industry demands.
A major highlight is the annual MBA Forum. This year, speakers from diverse sectors covered topics such as banking transformation, digitalisation in the arts, and the future of sports.
With a global network of 50,000 alumni across 170 countries and strong industry partnerships, Bayes MBAs have direct access to influential professionals. Each student works closely with a dedicated postgraduate Careers Advisor to build a strategic networking plan as well.
The result? A recent survey of 2023 Full-time MBA graduates found that 91.7% of job-seeking graduates received an offer within six months of graduation, 57% successfully changed both function and sector, and 49% relocated to a new country.
