Current Position: HR Business Manager, Procter and Gamble, Chile

I am currently working at Procter and Gamble, located in Chile, as an HR Business Manager for the Health and Well Being business in Latin America. I worked at P&G for five years before doing my MSc at LSE and I re-joined the company after my studies but in a new position, and I am really happy. The LSE MSc has broadened my horizons in a unique way and, even more important, it has given me a great group of friends. I will always treasure my year studying at LSE.

Paloma

Programme: MSc Theory and History of International Relations, 2007

Current Position: International Sales Manager, Granada Learning UK

I wanted a job with an international element and preferably in publishing. I decided to accept an offer from Oxford University Press in the international sales department. I spent a very exciting two and a half years there. I was in charge of our Educational sales in Europe and Latin America, which involved frequent travel to meet customers and promote our titles. By the end of 2010 I felt it was time for a change and a new challenge. I found a position as International Sales Manager for a London-based publisher. This was a step up for me as I am in charge of promoting our titles in the whole world.

Alonso

Programme: MSc Comparative Politics, 2008

Current Position: Policy and social analysis on mining and energy sectors in Peru

I personally believe that my experience in London changed my life in several aspects. Beyond the outstanding academic level, sharing a class, a coffee or a beer with people from all around the globe was amazing. I think that more Peruvians should follow the same path. I graduated from LSE in 2008 and am currently working for Golder Associates.
