Pro Vice-chancellor

As we work towards becoming a global authority in the creative arts, and in business and technology for the creative sectors, our new Pro Vice-Chancellor (Global Engagement) will play a critical role in achieving this vision.

Dedicated to education and research in art, design, architecture, film, communication, business and creative technology to name a few, the University serves the needs of the creative industries both nationally and internationally. Our creative community is made up of around 11,000 students and over 2000 employees in the UK and overseas.

The PVC (GE) will provide strategic leadership for ongoing development of home strategies as well as developing home and overseas partnerships.

We are looking for an inspirational leader who can work with the leadership teams and across all campuses to ensure the highest level of academic performance and financial viability of the portfolio, while promoting UCA to industry and governments in the UK and overseas.

While some international travel will be required, the role is predominately UK-based with a strong presence across our Surrey and Kent campuses.

At UCA, creativity and innovation are at the heart of what we do. Our legacy of educating eager and passionate artists, makers and thinkers runs back almost 160 years, and today we’re helping shape a global future that supports and nourishes talent worldwide.

Our campuses in Surrey and Kent are vibrant communities, each specialising in different areas of the creative industries. We are also home to a thriving research hub, with academic experts and fellows leading the way in research on sustainability, design, têxtiles, animation, history and culture, and more.
