Professional Groups

2020 seemed a good time to step back and review the Club’s Professional Groups structure. Over the last few years, many of the most successful events have been where groups with common interests have the opportunity to network. With this in mind, the Club has restructured the groups to reflect where professions have a shared interest and commonality and where interesting connections can be made. The Professional Group network provides a forum and opportunity for the Marlborough Community to network and is a port of call for OMs and College pupils to seek help and advice in pursuing their chosen careers as well as creating business and career opportunities. Below are the groups and the names of the group heads. You can find all contact details on the Club website marlburianclub.org
