Brewin Dolphin is proud to announce that six of its employees have become the first cohort from the company to pass the prestigious Cranfield MBA programme.
The six graduates, who work in financial planning and investment management roles within the company, are Jamie Durbin, Matt Casson, Edward Strange, Joanna Walford, Adrian Wasson, and Nick Guest.
The two-year study programme, which the six graduates began in April 2018, has seen them achieve the Cranfield Executive MBA award and the award for Chartered Manager status with the CMI (Chartered Management Institute).

Vicky Smith, head of learning and development, Brewin Dolphin, said: “This is a fantastic achievement and is the culmination of two-years of study by our six graduates balanced alongside their demanding day jobs.”
She added: “The Cranfield MBA programme calls for the application of new learning in areas beyond normal responsibilities, so it’s been great to see our graduates embed this in the breadth of topics they have covered, particularly for the final project that they all completed.”
A further 13 Cranfield MBA students from Brewin Dolphin continue to make progress across four separate cohort intakes.
