PERSON SPECIFICATION

02 UAL ESTATES STRATEGY

The University aims to be a place that will challenge, inspire, surprise and stimulate, to be recognised as one of the foremost institutions in the world for learning, practice, research and development in arts, design and communication, and to provide a learning environment in which originality is recognised, difference is respected, and excellence is pursued. UAL has an incredibly diverse estate spanning Central and Greater London and includes a broad range of property types encompassing academic, teaching, research, commercial, social, hospitality, residential and public realm spaces. The property portfolio is made up of 16 academic sites and 13 student residences hubs with buildings ranging from listed historic buildings to new state of the art facilities. This dynamic and diverse mix in one the world’s leading cities gives an exciting and challenging proposition to the UAL Estates department. The Estates department is currently undertaking an unprecedented estate transformation programme. Following the success of UAL’s relocation of Central Saint Martins as the centrepiece of the King’s Cross regeneration scheme, we are proposing over the next 5-7 years to replace over half of the academic estate with some major developments including two buildings in Stratford and Elephant and Castle totalling circa 70,000 sq m. We will increase our portfolio of owned halls of residences by the addition of at least two halls totalling circa 800 beds and continue to maintain and adapt the remainder of the 170,000 sq m estate to meet the needs of the University for decades to come. The current financial strength of the University, combined with opportunities in the property market, provide a unique opportunity to deliver the vision of a more unified, rationalised estate. Whilst recognising the importance of the individual identity of the six Colleges, this is an opportunity to create greater campus environments, showcase its collections and archives and enable the University to act cohesively.
