University of Sussex - Head of Asset and Space Management

THE SUSSEX CAMPUS

Sussex has one of the most beautiful campus locations in Britain; situated on the edge of the South Downs National Park and just 9 minutes from Brighton & Hove, the campus combines award- winning architecture with green open spaces. Designed by Sir Basil Spence, the buildings that make up the heart of the campus were given listed-building status in 1993. Falmer House is one of only two post-war educational buildings in the UK to be Grade I listed in recognition of its exceptional interest. Over the past two decades, Sussex has doubled in size in terms of activity, with the University trying to accommodate

this growth within its existing constrained campus. The University has invested significantly across its estate, delivering new academic and student accommodation facilities, social and hospitality space and upgrading critical infrastructure for 5G connectivity. We are now entering a new phase of Masterplanning and crucial to this is to have in-depth knowledge of the current estate usage and condition. At the heart of our programme of building and regeneration work is a sensitively thought-through plan to enhance the unique setting of our campus within the South Downs, whilst preserving the character of the distinct architecture.
