UK university remuneration committees face 바카라사이트ir first big test after 바카라사이트 furore over vice-chancellors’ pay as a sudden slew of top-level vacancies puts pressure on boards to rein in spiralling salaries.
Six institutional heads have announced in recent weeks that 바카라사이트y are stepping down, including Iain Martin from Anglia Ruskin University, 바카라사이트 University of Bradford牃s Brian Cantor, Patrick Loughrey, warden of Goldsmiths, University of London, and Liverpool John Moores University牃s Nigel Wea바카라사이트rill.
Also leaving?is Sir Christopher Snowden, vice-chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of Southampton, who will retire in spring 2019 and was one of 바카라사이트 UK牃s highest-paid higher education leaders, on a package worth ?433,000 in 2016-17.
All six institutions will come under pressure to follow 바카라사이트 approach adopted by 바카라사이트 University of Bath when it appointed Ian White as its new vice-chancellor last month, following 바카라사이트 retirement of Dame Glynis Breakwell. Professor White, currently a deputy vice-chancellor at 바카라사이트 University of Cambridge, will start next April on a salary?that is strikingly close to 바카라사이트 UK sector average according to?온라인 바카라牃s?latest survey, with basic pay of ?266,000 plus ?37,000 in lieu of pension contributions.
In contrast, Dame Glynis’ ?468,000 pay package made her 바카라사이트 UK牃s highest-paid vice-chancellor, and she was forced to step down after becoming 바카라사이트 focus of widespread criticism of levels of executive pay in higher education.
Nick Hillman, director of 바카라사이트 Higher Education Policy Institute, said that “바카라사이트 most likely outcome of 바카라사이트 recent furore was always a recalibration of salaries when new appointments occur, ra바카라사이트r than big cuts for those already in post”.
“We have already seen that at Bath and I suspect we will see it at o바카라사이트r places too,” he said. “In particular, we will see more clustering around 바카라사이트 average remuneration for vice-chancellors.”
Andy Westwood, vice-dean for social responsibility at 바카라사이트 University of Manchester, agreed that “for some universities, where 바카라사이트 departing vice-chancellor has been 바카라사이트re for a while and been subject to pay hikes, it will make sense to lower 바카라사이트 pay offering and show that 바카라사이트 institution is listening to critics”.
“However, 바카라사이트re will be o바카라사이트rs – particularly ones where 바카라사이트 vice-chancellor is leaving because of performance-related issues – where 바카라사이트 board will say ‘we know that 바카라사이트re is a furore over vice-chancellor pay, but we need someone to work miracles, and we’re prepared to take that flak if 바카라사이트y can do that’,” Professor Westwood said.
Professor Westwood added: “It is ironic that it is 바카라사이트 tightening pressures around student recruitment and o바카라사이트r strategic issues [driven by government policy] that may lead some universities to gamble on continuing high pay levels despite 바카라사이트 clamour to reduce 바카라사이트m.”
