Inspiring our Future
Old Malvernians
It was wonderful to welcome back a distinguished group of OMs for Malvern College’s annual Careers and Futures Evening on Friday 28th February.
This much-anticipated event provides pupils with valuable insights into a wide range of career paths, offering them the opportunity to learn from the experiences of alumni who have gone on to excel in their respective fields.
Thanks to this year’s impressive line-up of OM speakers: Andy Allen, low-carbon investor and developer, Jonathan Ashworth, CEO Export, Bayadera Group; Richard Cumbley, Partner & Solicitor, Linklaters LLP; Ashley Davies, Chartered Architect; Robert Porter, Civil Service, Foreign and Commonwealth Office; Sina Stapelfeldt, Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering, Imperial College London.
We are always very grateful to the OMs who return to give individual career talks throughout the academic year. Our pupils' experience has been enhanced through talks and workshops by Becky Connell, Mark Holland, Oscar Holroyd, Aaron King, John Livesey, John Mills, Deema Mozayen, Annika Schulz and Arianna Zeidi.
Pupils benefited from two inspiring university visits to Oxford and Cambridge, thanks to the generous support of OMs currently studying at these prestigious institutions. At Oxford, Shuaichu Pan and Josi Jebens led personalised tours, offering insights into their courses and sharing valuable advice on the application process. Meanwhile, at Cambridge, Ginny Lawrence and Emilio Dorai-Raj, both engineering undergraduates, guided pupils through Peterhouse, Pembroke, and Robinson Colleges, as well as the university’s engineering labs and the Cambridge West Science Centre. These visits offered pupils a vivid glimpse into life at two of the world’s leading universities.
These initiatives really demonstrate the strong and supportive alumni network that continues to guide and inspire pupils as they prepare for the future, and we are always very grateful to all alumni who generously give their time to support the next generation of OMs. If you are interested in coming back to Malvern College to talk about your profession, please get in touch: malsoc@malverncollege.org.uk.
