Support Team

The support team in the Vice-Chancellor’s Office provides an efficient, effective and confidential service for the Vice-Chancellor, Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Pro Vice-Chancellors, Dean of Strategic Futures and Interdisciplinary Studies, and Director of Business and Strategic Partnerships.

The support team handles all correspondence, emails, telephone calls and meetings for the Vice-Chancellor’s Office. A key element of their role is as a channel of communication to and from all sections of the University, and the dissemination of information from outside bodies.

The Vice-Chancellor’s Office maintains the University’s files of, and schedule of contents for, communications from organisations including Universities UK, HEFCW, Higher Education Wales, and the Welsh Government.
