We work closely with departments to ensure that the voices of postdocs and fellows are well-represented at the departmental level. Postdoc and Fellow Champions are integral to this effort, as they:
- Receive feedback from postdocs and fellows and present their views at department and faculty level to help ensure their needs are appropriately met
- Keep in regular contact with the postdoc reps within their department, with meetings taking place at least once per term
- Organise and attend meetings between postdocs, fellows and heads of departments
- Take an active role, together with postdoc reps, fellows and department staff, in organising events relevant to postdocs and fellows
- Provide advice to postdocs and fellows on available development training and support
- Encourage and facilitate networking between postdocs and fellows from different research groups and other staff within the department
- Ensure a department distribution list for postdocs and fellows is maintained
- Regularly attend the Champions meeting hosted by the Postdoc and Fellows Development Centre every term
