New leadership model - Head of School Operations Appointments

31 Jan 2019

The new leadership model for the Directorate for the Student Experience (DSE) and specific areas in the Faculties and Schools proposed the creation of a new Head of Schools Operations role.

The recruitment for these roles went live on 14 December 2018, with interviews taking place last week. Following a rigorous interview and assessment process the following colleagues have been appointed and assigned to specific schools. The vacancies in the Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health will now be advertised externally.
