At a meeting of University Council on Thursday 8 October it was confirmed that Professor Paul Whittaker and Professor Martin Broad would continue in their acting leadership roles as Dean of the Faculty of Business, Law and Art and Head of the Business School respectively.
In the case of the extension of the Acting Dean, this follows an internal consultation with colleagues in the Faculty, led by the Provost, Professor Mark Spearing. The consultation indicated overwhelming support for the continued stabilisation of the Faculty under Paul’s leadership.
Mark commented:
“I am delighted that Paul and Martin have agreed to continue to serve in these important roles. I am particularly grateful for their efforts to work closely with staff across the Business School and the Faculty to ensure that all voices are heard as we work together to create a strong and vibrant academic community.”
