At McBride, our commercial teams do it all — from analysing markets to planning demand, managing products to building lasting customer relationships.

 

That’s why, to support them, we’ve launched a dedicated Commercial Learning Academy for our hundred or so colleagues across our front office, middle office and marketing teams.

The Academy ensures every single role has a clearly defined job description and competency framework, providing all our colleagues with clarity on expectations and a personal roadmap for their career progression. Learning is delivered through a blend of self-paced content, McBride-specific courses and live virtual sessions covering key commercial skills — from financial management and interpreting market data to product knowledge. And of course, the training is available in multiple languages, ensuring our colleagues across McBride’s many regions have equal access.

And the Academy’s success is already visible. Since its launch, 55 of our commercial colleagues have already completed value-based selling training — a very exciting reflection of our company-wide commitment to this kind of practical learning. Well done, everyone!
