Partners and Guest Speakers

ARU London work closely with employers to design and update courses to meet the future needs of industry. Our network of organisations stretches across the UK with some operating globally.

This network of organisations allows us to work closely with employers to support our students in gaining valuable experience.

The University has partnered with a number of prestigious companies in order to give students a higher chance of finding employment. Some employers visit our campus to speak at our Industry Exposure sessions. Companies range from the hospitality sector to the finance sector, to various healthcare settings which means that you can hear from professionals in the industry right here in at ARU London.

Business representatives, company owners and guest lecturers speak about their career journey, their companies, and tips on securing a graduate job after university. Occasionally, they are actively recruiting in the building! These events take place throughout the year.

We also pride ourselves on delivering outstanding support to our students and alumni through our Employability programmes. Many external partners share with our students their knowledge and experience to provide career support, reason for which they constantly participate in our industry exposure and recruitment events. Currently, we have many mentors actively participating in our Industry Exposure sessions to enhance your employability skills, labour market and career opportunities.

ProTrust Consulting

ProTrust Consulting (PTC) is a small firm based in London (North Row, Mayfair).

We act for individuals and families.

As the name suggests, we are focused primarily on ‘Trust’ work. We do help people with other ‘legaltype’ matters but our core areas are in Trusts.

It might be assumed that ‘Trusts’ is a ‘niche’ area but it very much applies to everyday family circumstances and it ought not to be limited to the wealthy but anyone who cares about ensuring that their estate and assets are protected to pass in the most efficient way to their chosen family members.

Primarily, Trusts are created through Wills (ie on death) but there can be trusts created during the course of someone’s life.

When a Trust is activated, such as on death of the Will-maker, it brings into play the requirement for good administration and management of the Trust – but primarily it is a process of educating the family members as to

(a) Why the Trust is created;

(b) What it says and means;

(c) Who is it to benefit;

(d) How it is to operate.

We divide our service areas into three linked areas:

  • Estate Planning

The creation of a Trust, a Will and other services.

  • Estate Administration

Carrying out the administration of a Will - this is largely transactional. A process of collecting in assets, passing the benefit to family beneficiaries.

  • Trust Management

Trusts that are then activate on death are then administered for beneficiaries. One of the keys to using a Trust is the creation of a structure to benefit not just one beneficiary (say a widow(er) but also to ensure that successive beneficiaries are protected (ie children, grandchildren). So a trust provides a mechanism that can go on for a long time (up to 125 years in fact). A process of ongoing understanding, education and management of the Trust’s ‘value’ is undertaken.

Skillsets for our people:

We come from a legal background (former solicitor’s firms) but we are not a firm of solicitors. We are not accountants or financial advisors. We bridge those gaps in this field and therefore that is why we are also niche. We can introduce those areas where it is necessary and required for the benefit of families.

Therefore, our technical expertise and skill sets can be derived from any of those professional service areas and a little grounding in all is required. Primarily though, we believe that a legal background (a law degree, for example) is the most appropriate for those seeking to develop a career in this area.
