Getting here

Equality and diversity

To me, Team Teesside is all about community and respect. It doesn’t matter if you’re homegrown or from somewhere else, everyone feels welcome and part of a family here. It feels like being part of a team and as someone who wasn’t a local, I’m so glad it exists.

Kirsty-Louise Ferguson, HR Assistant , Human Resources

I'm new to Teesside but have worked in HE for many years. I know that if all staff, no matter their role, have a passion to deliver a fantastic student experience our students will feel this and benefit from it. I've found this shared passion at TU - this is Team Teesside.

Dr Nicola Watchman Smith, Deputy Director Student Learning, Student Learning & Academic Registry

I’ve worked at Teesside for 13 years, and the University has evolved into an innovative and prestigious campus which I’m proud to be part of. The University has given me lots of opportunities to progress within my career and I’m proud to be part of Team Teesside.

Ashleigh Ward, UK Admissions Administrator, Student Recruitment & Marketing

Team Teesside means feeling supported by colleagues that care and ask if you’re okay and really mean it, and inspirational provision for local students who never thought they’d get to go to university.
