Vice Chancellor's Office

Vice-Chancellor's expenses

The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Sussex voluntarily publishes their work expenses on a quarterly basis.

The information dates back to autumn 2016, which is when they took up their post.

We include details of travel, accommodation, hospitality and conference fees incurred by the Vice-Chancellor in carrying out their role for the University.

In reporting such expenditure, transactions are identified by reviewing the Vice Chancellor’s out-of-pocket expense claims, corporate purchasing card use and the corporate purchasing card use of the Vice Chancellor’s PA.

In addition, we publish details of the Vice-Chancellor’s pay and benefits in our annual financial statement.

The Vice-Chancellor does not have a vehicle or accommodation paid for by the University.

Current academic year

Expenditure incurred during the 2023/2024 academic year will be published quarter by quarter, starting with Q1 (August-October).
