Welcome and introduction
Senior Appointment
Chief Finance Officer
Welcome to Falmouth University and thank you for your interest in this role.
With over 120 years’ creative arts higher education experience, we are on a quest to offer the highest standards of teaching, research, and knowledge exchange, for both our on-campus and online provision. With over 7,000 students, our portfolio of undergraduate and postgraduate courses
and postgraduate research represents the breadth of the creative and cultural industries. We blend creativity and technology in a distinctive way that prepares us for the future. We are headquartered in Cornwall, where we benefit from the vibrant creative community that makes this place special.
We have refreshed our 2030 Strategy, learning from the challenges and successes of the last few years so that we can take positive steps into the future and ensure that we are providing our students and communities with the very best that creative and technical higher education has to offer. Our Mission, Vision and Values statements define who we are, what we do and why we do it, and will underpin all of our decision-making over the years to come.
Creative thinking is evident in every corner of our vibrant campuses, and online provision, delivering vitality to everything we do. It emerges in countless ways: it thrives in our studios and workshops, and it flourishes and creates magic where it meets technology– on screen, in digital designs and physical artefacts and through new innovations.
This is an exciting opportunity for you to join a team working hard to deliver the future of Falmouth University.
I look forward to your application.
