Business School
Jessica Black,
England
To balance a career and raising her 12-year-old son while gaining her degree, Jessica Black chose to study LSBF’s online Global MBA programme. Hard work and dedication to her studies propelled Jessica to her current position as supplier relationship manager in a corporate bank. Jessica was drawn to the exciting and challenging nature of a finance career, and wanted to earn an MBA to achieve her career goals: “I really like the programme because I’m being pushed to my limits, and the challenges I face every day make me learn a lot.” Ultimately, Jessica studied with LSBF because of the programme’s affordable tuition fees, course content, and positive reputation. The flexibility of online study also fit into Jessica’s busy schedule, meaning she could spend time with her son and stay in her job while earning her MBA. For Jessica, success means happiness—which she has found in her new finance career: “I chose to study with LSBF because it just seemed really perfect for me. Since graduating, I doubled my salary and I’m much happier in the position that I am in. I’m working for the industry I want to work with, so it changed my life for the better.”
