Why a Professional Services Group Conference?

In 2023, the results from the Employee Engagement Survey highlighted that staff don’t always know what the University does/gives back, over and above delivering Education and Research.

In particular, colleagues are not always aware of what the different areas of the Professional Services Group do. We want to change this – to give all of our staff the opportunity to learn more about all of the work the University does, and about what our Professional Services teams do.

Who can attend?

The conference is open to all colleagues at the University.

Given the focus on Professional Services, we expect colleagues within the Professional Services Group will make up the majority of attendees.

We would love to welcome academic colleagues to find out more about what goes on in Professional Services. Colleagues in Estates, the Information and Digital Group, and the Campus and Commercial Services Group are very much invited to attend.

What will happen?

We are looking at the programme for the day - it will definitely include:

• chances to connect with colleagues
• opportunities to hear from Senior Leadership
• a selection of interesting breakout sessions
• and of course refreshments!

We are open for breakout session submissions now.
