One of the most valuable aspects of an MBA program is the opportunity to learn from industry leaders and build a strong professional network. To help you make the most of your experience, we offer a range of exclusive initiatives designed to enhance your knowledge and connect you with influential professionals. We’re excited to introduce our MBA Lunch & Learn Sessions and MBA Off-Campus Networking Events, each providing unique opportunities to engage with experts and industry peers.

Meet Your Employer Relations Team Lead

Natasha Takhar wears two hats in the Employer Relations Team: MBA Lead, managing all projects, employer relationships, and events to support both part-time and full-time MBAs, and ESSI Sector Lead, overseeing events and partnerships in energy, sustainability, social impact, and growth markets. Natasha’s role is relatively new, and she works closely with MBA Career Consultants to tailor our initiatives to meet the needs of each programme.

Before joining the Employer Relations Team, Natasha worked with Global Tech Talent and Founders at Tech Nation, a growth agency dedicated to supporting exceptional tech entrepreneurs. I’m thrilled about the upcoming activities for the Spring and Summer terms and look forward to helping you maximize your MBA experience.
