AREA MANAGER GRADUATES

"My most memorable experience was being trusted to lead projects, directly contributing to ongoing work and adding value. Within six months, I was running projects independently and delivering outcomes that benefited the company."

"The biggest benefit of the grad scheme is the trust and responsibility given from day one. You’re thrown into real projects, challenged to rise to the occasion, and supported by both peers and mentors. The group setting fosters camaraderie, making it easier to learn, share experiences, and grow together."

"My advice to someone joining as a graduate would be; coming fresh out of your university bubble into a big organisation like M&B, there’s a lot you must learn as you go. The organisation has so many moving parts – it’s okay to not be clued in on everything on day one!"

"The graduate scheme teaches valuable life skills like thinking on your feet, adapting to different people, and understanding diverse perspectives. It helps you develop your own viewpoint and adapt quickly to new challenges."

"To thrive in the grad scheme, be curious and actively seek out chances to challenge yourself. Having a genuine passion for the hospitality industry also helps you adapt and succeed."

"The graduate scheme has been an exciting start to my career. M&B is incredibly supportive with workshops, career development, and study support, letting me balance work and education. It’s been a great way to jumpstart my career with confidence and excitement!"
