Key activities

What the FOS does

The FOS undertakes a wide range of activities whilst avoiding duplication of effort of work that is more suitably covered by other professional service teams (where local knowledge of the Faculty isn’t required). The FOS acts as a key interface with other Professional Services to help deliver an integrated and coordinated customer experience.
