Description

Solent University is a modern and ambitious university; committed to creating opportunities for its students, its staff, and for its partners. It offers expertise and experiences you can’t get anywhere else - opening doors and making introductions. We are focused on combining applied learning with the academic side of higher education; providing the connections and confidence to turn knowledge into careers with meaningful impact. Our community is vibrant and innovative with our six values of respect, ownership, inclusivity, engagement, integrity, and teamwork underpinning everything we do.

By 2025 Solent will have been a university for 20 years and will be able to trace its institutional roots back over 170 years. Our historical foundations in art, technology and maritime have provided us with a strong legacy on which we continue to grow. As we build on our students' and the University’s successes, we will seek further opportunities to grow and improve whilst remaining focused on creating a university that is sustainable and which fosters equal opportunities. To do this, we must maintain our financial resilience and ensure we are underpinned by a culture that will allow us to change, adapt and build for the future.

The University is now seeking a new Vice-Chancellor. Strategic vision and ambition will be key elements sought in the successful candidate, together with a deep commitment to the values and mission of the university. An inspirational, innovative leader, you will have an inclusive management style, accompanied by strong communication skills, academic credibility, financial acumen, and the ability to engage with, and inspire, the staff, students, and wider community.
