University of Essex - Director of Estate Management

DIRECTOR OF ESTATE MANAGEMENT

WELCOME FROM THE REGISTRAR & SECRETARY BRYN MORRIS

Dear Applicant

Thank you for your interest in the Director of Estate Management post and please find below further information on the opportunity which comes at a very exciting time in our development. Our Director of Estate Management leads a team of professionals who are committed to the built and natural environment making a tangible impact on delivering our ambitious University Strategy. Right from the start, when the University was established in 1964, we have understood that the way people and places interact helps to shape the character of a University. The vision of the initial Essex master-plan, with its fierce architectural language, helped shape our identity and values http://issuu.com/uniofessex/docs/gallery_guide_22163.

The Director of Estate Management will carry the lead responsibility for ensuring that our estate continues to do so.

Our University Strategic Plan commits the University to continued growth in student numbers at the same time as enhancing our standing within the sector and delivering a transformational experience for our students. These are bold ambitions that will require equally bold ideas and execution in the further development of our campuses and facilities. Celebrating our 50th anniversary in 2014-15, the University of Essex was ranked 19th in the Research Excellence Framework in 2014 and 2nd in the 2015 NSS for student satisfaction in the Times Good University Guide. Confirming our global reputation, the University was ranked 22nd in the Times Higher Education Top 100 universities under 50 years old in 2014 and is 31st in the world for our international outlook. The University has an annual turnover of £200m and 12,500 students at our campuses in Colchester, Southend and Loughton. Over the last five years we have invested £200m to provide a top-class student experience with state of the art facilities. Our Silberrad Student Centre and new building that is home to Essex Business School both opened this summer, following the opening of a new teaching centre, 650 bed student village and our science and research business park ‘Knowledge Gateway’. Our Strategic Plan sets our ambition to be acknowledged nationally and internationally as a leading research-intensive university. Currently ranked 35th in the Times Good University Guide, by 2019 we want to be firmly in the top 25 of UK universities and all of our subjects in the top 20% of their discipline within the UK. Our aim is to grow the size of the University by 50% by 2019. We are on target to meet our goals, with full time undergraduate acceptances having grown by 20.4% between 2013 and 2014 – the second largest increase in the UK – and applications up 13% for entry in October 2015.

ABOUT US

Purpose and vision The purpose of the University is to contribute to society through excellence in education and research. Achieving excellence in both education and research and ensuring that all of our activities support these two equal priorities, lies at the heart of all that we do. Our commitment is to offer our students a transformational educational experience, encompassing both academic and the extra-curricular, which provides them with the opportunity to fulfil their potential as individuals. We are pioneering the idea that students are joint members of our living and learning community, with a responsibility for their own development as learners and globally engaged citizens. In tandem, University staff are committed to achieving excellence in education by providing intellectually stimulating programmes of study, that are research-led and which are based on creative approaches to learning and teaching that reflect our commitment to innovation in curriculum design and delivery. Our commitment to research that matters and that has global impact informs all that we do. We have a broad spread of subjects covering humanities, science and health and social sciences. We have particular peaks of excellence in the social sciences and humanities and especially in interdisciplinary research, notably in human rights and quantitative social and economic research. We are proud of our track record of business engagement. Our commitment to this area has been consolidated by a £12m investment in the Knowledge Gateway, 43 acres of parkland which is an integral part of our Colchester Campus. The Knowledge Gateway is being developed around two foci. Building on our world leading expertise in quantitative data in the sciences, humanities and social sciences, we are making significant investments in business focused data analytics having created an Institute of Analytics and Data Science in 2014. We have opened a new £23m Business School on the Knowledge Gateway in the summer of 2015, with a remit to engage with small and medium sized businesses who can benefit from close links with ouracademic community, our research facilities and business development activities. The first phase of our

15,000 square feet office village Parkside opened in the spring of 2014 and already has 90% occupancy. This has given us the confidence to start the next phase of development building additional office space and developing plans for a 10 million pound 40,000 square foot innovation centre with work planned for summer 2016. Our academic community comprises 12,500 students and 2,200 staff. The University has three friendly purpose-built campus environments. The Colchester Campus, Essex’s largest and original site, is set in 200 acres of parkland. It incorporates teaching buildings, shops, banks, a gallery and theatre, bars and cafes, and sufficient student accommodation to house over half of our student population and 90% of our students are based here. The East 15 Acting School – founded by Joan Littlewood and oneof the top five acting conservatoires in the UK – is in Loughton just five minutes from London Underground’s Central Line. The University’s newest campus in Southend’s bustling high street opened in 2007 and houses the Centre for Education and Social Care and parts of Essex Business School, the School of Health and Human Sciences, East 15 Acting School and the Centre for Psychoanalytical Studies. We also have some 4,500 students studying for University of Essex-validated degrees at our partner institutions across Essex and further afield at: n South Essex College n Colchester Institute n Kaplan Singapore and University of Essex online degrees n Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust Foundation n Writtle College n University Campus Suffolk With the support of the University, Writtle College and University Campus Suffolk have been awarded taught degree awarding powers and are expected to have secured independent status in the Academic Year 2016-17.

ABOUT US

An Essex education An Essex education is based on research-led teaching that is collaborative in nature and takes place in a supportive and well- resourced academic environment. We take our commitment to research-led teaching very seriously indeed and faculty are expected to be great researchers and great teachers; our curricula is regularly updated by the latest research; and our students not only learn from great researchers but undertake research themselves developing skills of critical enquiry, independent learning and intellectual creativity. Because our University is on a human scale, there is also a very strong sense of community and faculty and students join in a common search for answers to globalchallenges. We are constantly working to improve the quality of ourteaching and learning. Our Education Strategy is an important vehicle for leading further enhancements to the type of research-led education that we offer. It focuses on how we will develop and support the four pillars of an Essex Education: a research mindset and skills; a culture of membership; a global community and outlook; and the Essex spirit. Over recent years we have invested £6m in the flagship Ivor Crewe Lecture Hall, built a new media centre, specially equipped dance and drama studios and in 2012 opened the £5m Tony Rich Teaching Centre. In the same year the University also opened a £36m University Square comprising student accommodation and a new teaching suite at Southend, and in 2013 we opened the £27m Forum Building that houses a library, gallery, research and learning facilities. In 2013 a new student village known as the Meadows opened at our Colchester Campus, with 650 new study bedrooms and additional student facilities. A £21m new student centre and library extension and a £23m building which will house Essex Business School opened in the summer of 2015. We have ambitious plans for the further enhancement of our facilities including a new North Teaching Centre (opening 2015), a £14m STEM teaching centre (opening 2017), a new student village (opening 2017) and on-going refurbishment of our historic estate. The University is home to three outstanding theatres and great sports facilities which have benefited from a £1.4m redevelopment. The University has its own art gallery, Arts on 5,and a Latin American art collection (ESCALA) unique to the northern hemisphere that has recently received national accreditation. These facilities help to make the Essex experience special for our staff and students. Essex also has a great reputation for the campus-based experience that we offer our students, providing opportunities for participation in a wide range of extra-curricular activities, engagement in an amazing range of student clubs and societies, and an extensive programme of student volunteering and sport. At Essex we are especially proud of our close working relationship with our award-winning Students’ Union, which plays a key role in enhancing the quality of our students’ experience.

OUR ESTATE

The Estate Management Section manages a diverse portfolio of activity. It is a multi-disciplinary Section, managing all aspects of the built environment, ensuring environmental sustainability, and providing comprehensive estate planning and management services. It is responsible for ensuring that the land and property assets support the business of the University, safely, economically and effectively. The Section represents the University in several capacities, including as the landlord/client for the allocation of all University space and in relation to all capital projects. It is respon- sible for the preparation of the Estates and Equipment Supporting Strategy and for implanting estate components of planning decisions into all other strategic activities.

The University’s estate, distributed across three campuses in Essex, is one of our most valuable assets. It is a key feature of the student experience and provides the environment within which the academic mission of the University is delivered. It is central to the delivery of excellence across the University. The University estate also encompasses the Knowledge Gateway science and business park, through which the intellectual resources of the University come together with businesses working in areas relevant to our expertise. The Essex estate is at a key stage in its evolution, with major recent investments having just come on stream and further development planned and necessary. Several large and exciting projects are on the horizon, some student-facing, others on the Knowledge Gateway, all of which require strong leadership, vision and management to bring to fruition. It is essential that our estate provides a high quality, sustainable and well-managed physical environment, which directly supports the University’s Strategic Plan.

ESTATES SUPPORTING STRATEGY SUMMARY (2014-2025)

Introduction The core purpose of the University of Essex is to contribute to society through excellence in research and excellence in education.’ The University Strategic Plan, 2013-14 to 2018-19 clearly sets out what the University seeks to achieve through the pursuit of educational excellence: “to offer our students a transformational educational experience, encompassing both the academic and the extra-curricular, which provides them with the opportunity to fulfil their potential as individuals by developing themselves within our living and learning community as independent learners equipped to take responsibility for their personal and professional development throughout their lives.” The University’s Education Strategy 2013-14 to 2018-19 recognises the central position of our estate and equipment noting how the University will: “align the development of the University’s physical estate and virtual estate with the nature of the University’s educational provision, providing consistently high quality physical and virtual spaces that support the delivery of excellent educational experiences for our students” This Estates and Equipment Supporting Strategy provides a framework for supporting these aims through estates transformation, so that the University delivers to its students the transformational educational experience to which it aspires, and which our students deserve. The physical University environment is distributed across three campuses. The founding campus at Wivenhoe Park near Colchester (opened 1964); a new campus at Southend on Sea (established 2003), and the East 15 Acting School acquired by the University in 2000 (founded 1963). The estate is a key feature of the student experience at the University and provides the environment and setting within which much of the academic mission and extra-curricular activity of the University are delivered. It is a key attractor to potential students and staff and has received significant investment in new buildings and facilities at all campuses. The main Wivenhoe Park campus has a distinctive feel

attributable to the original vision, layout, and construction of the buildings and landscaped parkland.

The estate was a radical component of the founding vision for the University developed by the founding Vice Chancellor, Sir Albert Sloman, and implemented through the architect for the University, Kenneth Capon, who master-planned and designed the original buildings for the Wivenhoe Park campus. They aimed to integrate a flourishing academic community of 10,000 to 20,000 students with the accommodation for both living and learning close to one another ratherthan dispersed. The concept for the University that Kenneth Capon produced dovetailed together all functions in an extremely compact area, so that no location was further than five minutes’ walk from the centre. The key social principles for Capon’s master-plan included: n Town squares n Design to encourage interaction between staff and students n Keeping social and academic activity at the heart of the campus The central campus buildings at Colchester around the squares accommodate teaching, administration, academic departments and social facilities including the excellent Students Union. Departments are mostly housed along corridors rather than in their own separate buildings, although some specialist buildings have been constructed subsequently. The construction of the historic estate is largely in concrete framed buildings in a modernist style although more recent buildings are in a variety of materials and styles, while the residential Towers are in a blue engineering brick. Although the estate has stood up well to fifty years of use it now presents a number of significant challenges for the University and the recent condition survey undertaken by property consultants Atkins on behalf of the University has identified significant investment needs in order to maintain the estate and replace life expired plant and building infrastructure. In addition to this, changes in pedagogy over the fifty years since the university was founded need to be supported.

ESTATES SUPPORTING STRATEGY SUMMARY (2014-2025)

world. It is a key tool in marketing the University to prospective students and in conveying a sense of identity, quality and purpose in support of the core academic mission. n The University Strategic Plan 2013-14 to 2018-19 clearly sets out the expectation for the role of the estate as an enabler to support the core academic mission of the University: “Match the capacity of the University’s estate, plant and equipment to its strategic requirements and environmental obligations, and enhance the functional suitability of the University’s spaces, places and facilities for the delivery of excellence in education and research” n The estate is an essential component of the experience at all campuses and significant recent investments in the estate at Southend have radically improved the student experience and created more of a campus feel to this town centre environment. n The 1960s main central campus at Wivenhoe Park has suffered from an under-investment in the past and its reinvention will be central to delivering excellence in education and research in the next two Capital Investment Plans. n The estate is an essential enabling and supporting element for the delivery of excellence in education and excellence in research, and the University’s Challenger philosophy. This Supporting Strategy aims to place the radical reinvention of the historic 1960s estate at the heart of the strategy and the next two Capital Investment Plans. The full Estates Strategy can be provided upon request for interested candidates.

The realisation of Sir Albert Sloman’s vision and Kenneth Capon’s concept has given the University of Essex its own unique style and feel which perfectly aligns with the Challenger philosophy and provides an excellent platform from which to develop exciting new infrastructure to support the future academic mission of the University, in alignment with the Challenger approach to provide a compelling difference. The founding principles are also reflected in the built environment at Southend and Loughton, where the living and learning experience is central to the University offer and the operation of the estate. The new Forum for example sits at the heart of a new University Quarter in Southend and has been developed in a unique collaboration with Southend on Sea Borough Council and South Essex College. Investment in the estate and the University infrastructure (including IT/AV and equipment) is necessary demonstrably to support excellence in education and excellence in research. The estate at its most basic level only exists to support the academic mission of the University and the provision of a high quality student experience; it is not an end in itself. In order to underpin innovation in teaching and the development of technology enhanced learning, estate developments will need to embrace innovation in space design, allocation and utilisation. This will require further developments in flexible learning spaces, group-work space with appropriate technology and suitable co-location with social areas including shared spaces. Underpinning values n The University was founded on the principle of the creation of living and learning community where education was set alongside the development of skills for life. “A University is a community where the student is guided in the first stage of a life-long task of self-education, a community whose concern is not just with pursuit of learning but with the fulfilment of lives” (Sir Albert Sloman, founding Vice-Chancellor of the University of Essex, A University in the Making – 1963) n Universities are place-based organisations and the estate is a key component in supporting the whole student experience and the creation of the academic community. The estate is also key to conveying the brand and essence of the University to the external

Future exciting capital development plans include:

n Public realm space development n Further development of the Student Village

n New STEM teaching facility (£14m) n Sports Centre extension (£11m) n New Library and teaching scheme in Southend (£30m) n New Business School (£22m) n Feasibility on a ‘University train station’ and mixed use scheme in Colchester
