Ideal candidates will be able to understand and nurture our history, our diversity and our distinctiveness. They will have a track record of providing effective and transformational leadership in a multi-disciplinary environment, with analytical skills and the ability to think broadly and strategically. Evidence of a substantial academic management track record and involvement in curriculum development is crucial. Candidates will be skilled communicators, with the ability to take people with them, and experience of working through influence.

The new Head will work with the School and wider University community to celebrate our strengths and achievements and help forge an ambitious path forward. They will drive the strategy and overall progress of the School, working with colleagues to develop and maintain excellence across both teaching/learning and research and playing a central role in relations with external partners.
