Estates Strategy

Following extensive consultation within the College, the Council approved the first ever Estates Strategy on 25 November 2008.

It is a 10-year strategy and it both supports and enables the College Corporate Plan to be realised.

Departmental Structure

The Estates Department provides a supportive service for the College to enable its corporate objectives to be satisfied.  

In order to achieve this the department is structured into four inter-dependant management teams, each led by a senior and professionally qualified member of staff. The teams are:
  • Campus Services
  • Building Services
  • Project Management Services
  • Health & Safety

The 'Meet The Team' pages in each section provides a 'snapshot' of the team structures. Further details of each management team (and their specific areas of responsibility) can be found within the sections.
