In 1997 I transferred onto the full-time MBA programme where I was Director of Admissions, then Deputy Director. In August 2003 I was appointed to the post of Programme Director for the BBA in Management, transferring to the BBA in European Management in 2006. From August 2009 I have been the Programme Director for the MSc in Management programmes at Lancaster, Goenka and Sunway.
