As the Group People Director, I promote continuous improvement, innovation and agility in service delivery, and ensure that the University’s people strategies support the achievement of the University’s mission and align with the University’s values.
I am also a member of VCE and operate in collaboration with senior leadership teams across all Units and locations, including our trade unions.
A number of projects are sponsored by this role such as the Associate Lecturer Programme, Core Systems Replacement, our Student and Staff Mental Health and Wellbeing strategy and our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion ambitions.
I am passionate about helping people to be great leaders and creating a working environment which is inclusive and where people are supported and developed to succeed.
