Thanks for sharing your feedback – great to hear that you’ve had positive experiences with colleagues and your faculty. Neither our College Leadership Team or People Team have received any reports of harassment or bullying. However, that doesn’t mean we can sit back and relax. That’s why we’ve been proactive in making sure this is a workplace where it doesn’t happen, hence the recent training, videos, policy updates and new anonymous reporting tool launched last year. If you’re aware of any unacceptable behaviour, the best thing to do is to raise it with anyone in the People Team or College Leadership Team, and they’ll all be happy to help you.

Pros

I worked for a charity for 17 years before joining Exeter College and I couldn't be happier for the move. The hours are consistent and set at reasonable times of the day, you don't have to work weekends and get a lovely 2 paid weeks off over Christmas. The benefits are really good, and everyone is really lovely. The staff parties at Christmas and in Summer, as well as the department themed ones are a great way to feel appreciated.

Cons

I haven't found any yet.

Thank you so much, what a lovely review. It's great to hear that you're enjoying your job and feel appreciated. But if you ever feel differently, have a chat with your manager or the People Team - we're hear to listen and sort things out.
