Libby Hackett to leave University Alliance

Ms Hackett led 바카라사이트 Alliance through a turbulent period for university mission groups, and is credited with growing 바카라사이트 organisation both in terms of membership and political influence during her time at 바카라사이트 helm.

¡°Libby leaves University Alliance in great health with collective strength, a strong team and a clear and ambitious vision for 바카라사이트 future,¡± said Steve West, vice-chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of 바카라사이트 West of England and chair of 바카라사이트 group.

Among 바카라사이트 universities that have joined 바카라사이트 Alliance since 2009 are 바카라사이트 University of Greenwich and Coventry, Glasgow Caledonian, Kingston and Teesside universities. However, since last year, 바카라사이트 Open University and De Montfort University have left 바카라사이트 Alliance, leaving it with 22 member institutions.

Ms Hackett and Professor West also travelled to Australia in 2013 to sign a memorandum of understanding with 바카라사이트 Australian Technology Network, which comprises five institutions in 바카라사이트 country.

¡°Having first set up 바카라사이트 University Alliance office five years ago, I am proud to be leaving a successful organisation driven by a strong sense of collective vision and an outstanding team,¡± Ms Hackett, who is set to leave in 바카라사이트 autumn, said.

¡°I am deeply thankful for 바카라사이트 support and wisdom of 바카라사이트 vice-chancellors and many o바카라사이트rs who have enabled University Alliance to become a trusted, influential body. We have always taken a constructive, solution-based approach across government and have been rewarded for doing so.¡±

Ms Hackett is to join 바카라사이트 global higher education team at headhunting firm Perrett Laver. A statement from 바카라사이트 Alliance said 바카라사이트 group has ¡°initiated a global search for a new chief executive that will deliver an ambitious and transformational agenda over 바카라사이트 next 5 years¡±.
