A practical resource for the business community

What The Employers Say

Paul Buckett, Volkswagen UK

"Volkswagen has enjoyed an excellent relationship with Leeds Business School and its students over several years. We offer placement students a real job, real responsibilities and direct contact with the media in a supportive, team environment. They make a very valuable contribution to the activities of the department and have never failed to integrate fully and earn the respect of all their department colleagues."

Carol Ellison, Managing Director, Ellisons UK

"We have been employing Leeds Business School Students on placements for over 12 years now and have been very happy with the contribution they have made to our company. We have found them to be very 'rounded and grounded' and they have always fitted in as part of our team almost immediately after starting. I believe this to be largely due to Leeds Met's emphasis on vocational training and practical study."

Mark Lloyd, Clariant UK

"For many years Clariant UK Ltd has developed strong links with Leeds Met whereby students - through long term or short term projects - build on their high level education to address real business issues. I would say that in the last 5 years we have had over 90% success rate, resulting in a 'win win' scenario!"
