FIMBA students visit Liverpool Football Club
Students on the Football Industries MBA (FIMBA) recently visited Liverpool Football Club in the first of a series of trips to football clubs and other football related organisations across the UK.
The visit involved meeting former FIMBA students who are now employed by the club along with other club representatives, giving students a sense of what’s involved in working at a premier league club.
The students toured the facilities and witnessed the expansion and development of Anfield football ground. This was followed by presentations from members of Liverpool’s corporate and commercial departments including Phil McKee (the Club’s Commercial Analyst), Fernando Zuchetto, (Digital Engagement Coordinator), and Andrew Guest (International Development Co-Ordinator). All three are alumni from the Football Industries MBA programme.
The presentations were followed by a panel discussion in which the FIMBA students took the opportunity to discuss various aspects of football and management.
