Hi
I have 15 years work exp and am looking to pursue MBA for 2 reasons
1. Address the plateau in my career-I have been in the same position for 3 years now though I handle different projects. I work as a Project Manager in Enterprise Risk dept of a global bank handling projects of $1 MM budget.
2. Work in the UK

I have applied for University of Edinburgh B-School and looking at a few more like(mostly from the Russell Group)

Bath
Birmingham
Newcastle
Durham
Bristol
Sheffield
Lancaster
Glasgow

Any pointers at these and any other B-schools I should be considering given my background and work experience would be appreciated.
My budget is around 30-35k GBP.

PS: I am only looking at non-GMAT schools.

Many Thanks.

Do you have any other specific career goals other than addressing a career plateau? Do you want to move into a more senior/general management type role for example?

Have you analysed the reasons for why you have plateaued? Have you had feedback from your line manager/annual appraisals etc? An MBA might not be the most effective route to addressing this, depending on your goals.

You need to spend a few hours with a career coach. An MBA at a Russell Group university is not what you need. Any why Russell Group? https://find-mba.com/board/gmat/why-you-should-take-the-gmat-33542
