Asya Manova,
Bulgaria
Asya Manova graduated from LSBF in 2013. She combined her MSc Finance and Accounting with a part-time internship at Fidelity Worldwide Investment, subsequently being rewarded with a full-time position. “The international environment at LSBF was great – not only nurturing you as a part of a global world with the various team projects during the term, but also rewarding the individual achievements and developing business leaders.” Asya has since progressed in her career, receiving further promotion, and now holds the title of Senior RFP Consultant Database Analyst. She is now looking forwards to more career development opportunities. “My job allows me to be challenged and to learn something new every day, which makes it fantastic experience. Not to mention my manager and team which are very friendly, professional and flexible and make the working environment very pleasant.” Asya is also studying to complete the CFA programme. “Ipersonally think that life is all about learning and experiencing and the only way forward is to commit yourself to self-improvement and development.” Advice to LSBF students and graduates “Use all your time and opportunities to advance in your studies, meet as many people as possible and also try to find a professional course or internship.”
