Move into strategic HR leadership with a CMI-accredited MBA Human Resource Management degree.
The UK’s HR landscape shows rising demand for experienced HR leaders. There are growing opportunities for senior professionals – from HR business partners to directors and interim leaders – who can guide companies through transformation and restructuring (ONS, 2025). Designed for working professionals ready to lead organisational change, manage talent, and shape inclusive workplaces, our MBA HRM degree helps you develop a deep understanding of how people strategy and organisational behaviour drive performance and culture across industries.
Developed in the City of London – a global centre for international business and management practice – this 100% online MBA connects theory to real-world application. You’ll study how people strategy drives business performance – from talent development and reward design to agile HR and change management. Alongside core business topics like finance, marketing, and strategic management, you’ll explore how HR leadership supports organisational performance and transformation.
To apply for the Walbrook MBA, you’ll need to meet one of the following:
Option 1:
A 2:2 honours degree (or equivalent) from a recognised institution plus relevant professional experience (typically 2+ years).
If you have less than 2 years’ experience, you’re still encouraged to apply. We’ll review your academic and professional background on a case-by-case basis.
Option 2:
A minimum of 2 years of relevant professional experience.
As organisations adapt to new ways of working, experienced HR leaders are being called on to steer transformation, manage talent, and rebuild culture. According to data from the Office of National Statistics, experienced HR management professionals remain in demand – providing clear career opportunities to those who can lead during times of organisational change (Hunter Adams, 2025).
Senior roles now extend far beyond traditional HR functions – offering opportunities to influence business strategy, drive innovation, and shape how people experience work. Our CMI-accredited Master of Business Administration in HR Management helps you develop skills that blend specialised knowledge of human resources with a global understanding of strategy and leadership. Over time, and as your career progresses, this foundation can open pathways towards roles that guide organisational culture, workforce planning, and the people strategies that underpin growth.
