Biography

I joined the University in 1998, firstly working in the Academic Section within the Timetable and Examinations Office, the Systems Administration Office and the Academic Registrar's Office. I worked in Strategic Planning and Change Section from 2012, until the Governance Team were moved to the Office of the Vice-Chancellor in November 2018. From March 2023, I am now part of the Information Assurance team, within the Governance Office. I work with the Information Assurance Manager and the Information Assurance Assistant on matters relating to both Data Protection and Freedom of Information and all matters relating to information assurance. I maintain the University's Record of Processing Activities (ROPA) and Information Asset Register (IAR). I am managing the University's central policy repository, supporting colleagues across the University to ensure that policies are reviewed and updated to agreed timescales, and that they are approved at the appropriate time, in the appropriate format, by the appropriate decision-making body. I am responsible for the annual update of the University Calendar, Regulations and Procedure document which is published online for the commencement of the new academic year. The Diary of Meetings is a really useful document within the University Calendar which sets out the meetings of Senate, Council, its sub-committee, senior team away days and dates of term; and manage the institutional record of Office Holders.
