Senior Manager - Executive Masters Growth & Experience

Salary from £53,949 to £62,160 pa inclusive with potential to progress to £69,073 pa inclusive of London allowance

The Lifelong Learning Division (LLD) is central to LSE's ambition to extend its academic mission beyond degree education, providing transformative learning experiences to professionals, organisations and lifelong learners worldwide.

The Division's portfolio spans four principal areas: Executive Education (open and custom), Online and Lifelong Learning, support to the LSE Executive Masters portfolio and stackable credentials, and the LSE Lifelong Learning Experiences. The Division is undergoing a major strategic transformation, with a target to grow revenues significantly by 2030, requiring expanded market reach, deeper corporate engagement and a step-change in the Division's marketing capability and brand presence.

Executive Masters are a strategically important part of this portfolio, providing academically rigorous, part-time postgraduate education for senior professionals worldwide. To ensure their sustainability and impact, the School is strengthening how Executive Masters connect to short courses, certificates, Executive Education and external partners, and how learners progress into and through these programmes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
