Alumni Council Mission
The Alumni Council is a group of alumni volunteer leaders who represent the voice of the global alumni community. They share their experiences and perspectives as former students and lifelong alumni to advocate for this community and emphasise the value of being an active alumnus. The Council supports the School in delivering its mission: to have a profound impact on the way the world does business and the way business impacts the world. The Council offers insights on the School's priorities and collaborates with staff to deliver key priorities, both individually and collectively, with a particular focus on strengthening the School's overall competitive position and building a robust community of current and prospective alumni.
Note from the Alumni Council Chair
It is my honour to represent you and to work with all of our Alumni Council members to support our community. My time at LBS was a life-changing experience for which I am always grateful. I hope to bring the same sense of pride, enrichment and belonging to you, and to everyone we represent, including those students who have yet to join us. The Alumni Council represents alumni perspectives on strategic initiatives within the School and seeks to raise the profile of LBS alumni around the world. We provide guidance to the Dean, the Governing Body, the Advancement team and other school departments, advocating for our alumni and their viewpoints. Our Council members represent alumni from all walks of life, though each of us has a passion for and a history of volunteering with the School. Above all, our Council members are here for you. We want to help to make our alumni community more cohesive and productive, as well as to serve as a central point for feedback on what additional services and opportunities the alumni base requires. Please reach out to us with questions or suggestions on how to increase our sense of community.

Alumni Council members serve a 3-year term which is renewable once. Every Spring the Governance and Nominations Committee of the Council runs a nomination process for new members to join in August.
The Council aims to be representative of the diverse alumni community it serves. This includes incorporating a range of geographies, programmes, nationalities, generations, expertise and experiences from across our alumni. For 26-27, the Council will endeavour to include alumni leaders with the following experience: EMBAD, MiM, MFA, MAM, MiF, India, Africa (all countries), Middle East (all countries), Media, Finance, Law, Strategy Consulting and/or Entertainment. It is worth noting that while the Council seeks to be diverse, commitment to the community and the School are the primary criteria.
Applications are now open and will close Monday 20th April 2026. For more information or to register your interest, please contact alumnicouncil@london.edu
