Professorial Banding Review

The indicative banding process for 2021/22 will take place from July 2021 and is applicable to Level 7 staff within the Research and Teaching (R&T) Job Family, including staff in UMC and UNNC.

This process does not apply to Clinical Academics.

Our procedure aims to ensure that the University considers individual banding, taking account of the individual’s career profile and pathway.

The banding process will recognise a high level of achievement/contribution in three broad areas of activity:

  • Teaching and curriculum leadership
  • Research and scholarship
  • University and academic service, and good citizenship (whether by offer eg leadership, management, administration, collegiality, knowledge exchange or pastoral care within the University, or by engaging on behalf of the University with the wider community including globally).
