I manage the Operations and Office Management team, which exists to ensure a conducive working environment for all members of the DPIR community, and represent DPIR on issues related to our Manor Road Building. My responsibilities include:
Departmental Safety Officer: Risk assessment, policy and safety point of contact for staff and students.

IT Lead: Equipment policy and maintenance working with the IT Support Group.
Governance: Secretariat for General Purposes Committee (GPC) and Sub-Faculty.
Risk and compliance: Business continuity planning, data protection and departmental risk register.
I am also a Co-chair of the University’s Business and Operations Managers Network.
