Finance, Planning and Data Insight section
The Finance, Planning and Data Insight section is responsible for managing the University's income and expenditure, ensuring we get value for money in all financial activity and that we comply with all statutory and regulatory requests. We aim to ensure consistent financial best practice is applied across the University.
We support the departmental and professional services planning process; oversee annual student number planning and provide information via the Planning Information Portal and through Tableau. We are also responsible for a number of statutory student related returns to the Office for Students (OfS) and monitoring a number of league tables that relate to the key performance indicators in the University’s strategic plan.
