The main College building is a modern masterpiece housing most of our undergraduate students, with others living in houses on the College estate.

As a College, we proudly promote a culture of friendliness and mutual support, a truly inclusive approach to community life, and a passion for education and research in a stimulating academic environment.

The College has an active and successful Development Office which caters for a growing population of over 5,800 contactable alumni.  The recent foundation of the College is reflected in the relative youth of our alumni base. This presents challenges and rewards in equal measure to an enthusiastic Development Director.

As the College approaches our 50th anniversary, there is an exciting opportunity for the successful candidate to lead and execute the associated fundraising campaign and a programme of activities, commissions and events to celebrate our milestone.
