We are bolstered by industry initiatives and innovative research programmes, building a thriving university at the heart of a powerful and connected region.
This is reflected in our bold vision for our Estate. We are creating a transformative and dynamic environment that will seamlessly integrate academic excellence, innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity. Our Campus Connectivity Plan aspires to create a vibrant and inspiring hub for learning, research, and community engagement, fostering a holistic educational experience for all. Sustainability lies at the heart of this vision and of course it extends beyond physical infrastructure, emphasising the integration of technology to create a digitally connected campus. In turn the University is one of the three Partners in the Crescent Salford Masterplan, a £2.5bn investment in the city.

You will have a proven track record of delivering significant capital projects and development on time and to budget.
