Third iPad winner announced

30 Mar 2015

Mike Berne was chosen at random from all of the people who have completed and submitted the Staff Survey 2015 since it opened on 9 March

Mike Berne

Mike is School Management Accountant for the Institute of Cancer Sciences, the Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences, Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute and Manchester Cancer Research Centre.

He joined the University in 2010 to provide maternity leave cover and stayed on when a vacancy opened up in the same team. Since then, he has also worked as Research Finance Officer in MHS, and as Business Support and Development Officer in Community-Based Medicine in Manchester Medical School. 

In his current role, he looks after the financial operations of the Institutes, including management accounts, operational finance and budget preparation.

Since the Staff Survey 2013, Mike has noticed a definite improvement in University-wide communications. He said "There's a lot more information available about what's happening across the University. While many developments on campus may not be directly relevant to my own role, it's still good to have an overview of what's going on."

Capita, which is running the survey on the University’s behalf, will be choosing a winner each week the survey is live, from everyone who has completed the questionnaire. So the sooner you submit your survey, the more chances you have of winning one of the three remaining iPads.  

And Mike isn’t the only one to benefit from the Staff Survey 2013.   

After completing the survey you can choose to make a £1 donation to one of the following charities:

  • The Christie
  • St Ann's Hospice
  • The Mustard Tree

There’s still time to complete the Staff Survey – it’s open until Monday, 20 April.    You should have received an email from Capita on Monday, 9 March with a link to the survey – it will appear in your email inbox as:

  • From: Surveys, staff
  • Subject: University of Manchester Staff Survey

If you can’t find it, call Capita on 0800 587 3115 and they will resend you the link.    If you don’t have email access at work, then your line manager will make sure you receive a paper copy of the survey to complete and return to Capita.
