As we approach the start of the new academic year, we would like to wish a warm welcome to a number of new colleagues who have recently joined us.

• Carolina Alonso-Bejarano - Deputy Director of Student Experience
• Andrew Johnston - Professor
• Alex Sharpe - Professor
• Rebecca Limb - Teaching Fellow
• Serena Natile - Assistant Professor

Plus welcome back to Jenny Paterson who has returned to her role as Research Administrator after her maternity leave. Good to have you back with us Jenny.

Whilst we are excited to welcome our newest team members, we sadly had to say goodbye to some too.

• Tasneem Webster-Kelly - Senior Finance Assistant
• Jill Wakefield – Reader (retired)
• John McEldowney – Professor (retired)
• Andreas Kokkinis – Associate Professor
• Sanjeeb Hossain – Teaching Fellow
• Andy Campbell – Sessional Teacher
• James Hodges – Sessional Teacher

We would like to thank them all for their contribution to the School and wish them nothing but the best for the future.

We are also saying a temporary goodbye to two colleagues who will be working away from the School for a while.

• Shaheen Ali has a two year posting as Rector of the Pakistan National Academy of Higher Education (NAHE) and is due to return to Warwick in March 2022.

Mohsen al Attar is taking up a three year post as Dean of University of West Indies and will return in October 2023.

Good luck to both of them, they will be missed.
