The pub was packed, (proving right the adage that Thursday is the new Friday!), however thankfully the will to meet other alumni working in the same sector was such that everyone made their way through the throngs of city workers to join us for an evening of sector specific networking.

From Legal Counsel to Commercial, Fine Art to Software Engineering and Financial Crime to the Royal Courts of Justice, we had a wonderfully diverse mix of alumni join us all representing these two sectors.

It was a pleasure to hear so many shared professional experiences, to see numerous connections being made, as well as to hear a plethora of school-day stories and memories.

Scott and Sophie had to catch the last train home but left the group still in full flow and the networking looked to be continuing with great energy.

As well as sharing advice, experiences and opening up new connections with other attendees, many of the alumni at the event also offered to speak to and advise current RGS pupils and some of our newest leavers in the future. We are always tremendously grateful to our alumni community who do so generously give their time and share their expertise to offer inspiration, guidance and motivation to those earlier on their study and career journeys. It will be a pleasure to welcome them back to School over the coming year.
