On Thursday 21 March 2019 Claremont Fan Court School welcomed over 200 pupils and parents for our 2019 Careers Evening at the Mansion, where representatives from more than 30 establishments including Virgin Atlantic, Goldman Sachs, KPMG, BUPA, Chelsea FC, HM Treasury and Google, plus the University of Loughborough and the University of Bath volunteered to speak to pupils from years 11, 12 and 13.

We were also delighted to welcome back a large number of alumni willing to talk about their respective careers, including Maddie Nursey (Class of 2011, Longcross) HR for Harlequins Rugby; Professor Moorad Choudray (Class of 1985, Radnor) Head of Asset-liability Management for Cambridge and Cities Bank; Lauren Ryan (Class of 2006, Longcross) Pilot for Norwegian Air; Lucy Greenslade (Class of 2015, Radnor) Policy Advisor for HM Treasury; Alex Rutter (Class of 2001, Radnor) Director at IBM; John Ryan (Class of 2013, Esher) Aerospace Engineer for Virgin Atlantic; Jamie Sellers (Class of 2016, Radnor) Academy Performance Analyst for Chelsea FC; Thomas Butcher (Class of 2013, Esher) Audit Assistant Manager at KPMG; Elly Gierhart (Class of 2010, Longcross) Marketing and Events at KPMG and our very own Year 6 Preparatory School teacher, Jemima Davey (Class of 2012, Norwood).

We are extremely grateful to all the alumni, parents and friends of the School that volunteered their time to represent their industry at the event. We are now looking to build on the success of this year’s event with our 2020 Careers Evening next March. If you would like to get involved please contact us on careers@claremont.surrey.sch.uk.
