The Vice-Chancellor’s remuneration shown in the year was approved by the University’s Remuneration Committee. In determining the remuneration of the Vice-Chancellor the Remuneration Committee considers pay benchmarking data in respect of Heads of Institution provided annually by Universities and Colleges Employers Association (UCEA) and the Committee of University Chairs (CUC). Specific benchmarks includes median and mean comparisons as well as quartile pay and total pay data for all institutions, post-92 universities and universities within a similar institutional income bracket. The consideration includes assessment of individual performance based on the University’s senior staff appraisal scheme. The assessment includes consideration of the Vice-Chancellor’s individual performance against targets agreed by Chair of Board of Governors, with a particular focus on the Vice-Chancellor’s contribution to progress in achieving the University’s strategic aims. The level of pay awards to other senior staff are also taken into account.
The Vice-Chancellor voluntarily withdrew from the LGPS on 1 May 2018 and, in accordance with an understanding reached upon joining the University and ratified by the Remuneration Committee, has received, from the date of withdrawal, a monthly salary adjustment (shown within remuneration as ‘payments in lieu of pension contributions’). As a result of this change the cost to the University of the Vice Chancellor’s total remuneration has decreased.
The Vice-Chancellor was awarded a 2% pay increase to take effect from 1 August 2018, in line with the National Pay Award. A one-off, unconsolidated, performance-related bonus was awarded to the Vice-Chancellor in recognition of his leadership and performance during the academic year 2017/18, payable in January 2019, which he declined.
On 8 May 2019 the University announced the resignation of Professor Tim Blackman from the position of Vice-Chancellor with effect from 31 August 2019. On 2 September 2019 James Kennedy (Chief Financial Officer) was appointed Interim Vice-Chancellor, who will receive a responsibility allowance of £56.1k per annum whilst performing these interim duties in addition to his basic salary which was £153k during the year ended 31 July 2019.
