Banding Process

The banding process gives Level 7 academic staff the opportunity to apply to be banded by taking into account the staff individual's career profile and academic framework.

The banding process is applicable to the Level 7 research and teaching (R&T) job family.

Full details of the banding process can be found in the banding guidance.
