provides collaborative work areas, dark rooms, print room, recording 
studios, and practice and performance spaces. The versatility of the 
building opens up exciting possibilities to innovate in programme and 
module design at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and to achieve 
new forms of student experience and co-creative engagements.

We are seeking an experienced strategic leader who will provide the 
overall academic and professional leadership of the School's work, 
developing a culture that values individuals' contributions whilst 
raising achievement and increasing innovative, enhancing, 
interdisciplinary and cross-faculty working. The appointed candidate
