Business and management

Your career guide

This career guide is designed to help University of Portsmouth students and recent graduates explore job options, key employers and entry routes into the business and management sector.

Business and management is a field full of exciting possibilities. As companies face rapid change and increasing complexity, there is the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of areas like strategy, operations, finance, HR and technology.

Working within a management role can shape the success or failure of an organisation, which means that skills such as innovation, the ability to effectively manage resources and people and a good understanding of change management are highly desirable, particularly during a difficult economic climate.

Roles within the sector are varied -  you could find yourself in consultancy, recruitment, business development or financial analysis, across industries from tech and healthcare to entertainment and sustainability.
