Welcome to Human Resources

In HR we look after the relationship between you and the University. It’s our role to support your professional goals and development, as well as your wellbeing at work.

We manage employment policies and conditions, staff recruitment and induction, benefits, salaries and much more.

We’d love to hear what you think of our site. Please send us your feedback.

  • Donate to your favourite charity through payroll: Bell Fundraising will be in the Staff House Foyer on Wednesday 9 May between 10.30am and 2.00pm to explain payroll giving and help staff sign up.

  • From April 2012, there will now be a 25% discount on annual bus passes purchased through payroll.  New and existing members will automatically qualify for this increased discount.
