About the department

Central to the success of the University are its staff and through ensuring that every staff member is valued for their individual contribution, we believe that we can create the right environment where each individual can flourish.

We contribute across all areas of the University's activity and work in partnership with colleagues to support them in their own work areas.

The department prides itself in working to high professional standards. It is organised on a business partnership model with aligned teams working with dedicated business units, with specialists providing dedicated support in functional and thematic areas.
