Staff are the heart of the University of Bedfordshire and the transformative opportunities the University is able to provide for students is only possible because of the commitment, ideas and professionalism of its staff team. 'Our people' are made up of our academics, professional support staff and operational services colleagues who work in partnership with our students, our alumni, the local community, professional organisations and businesses.

A priority for the University is and continues to be, building and developing a culture based on listening, collaborating, and the sharing of good ideas, supported by the appropriate professional and personal development opportunities. It also recognises the link between staff health and in return the health of the University. That is why it is working to ensure that staff are provided with an environment and opportunities that encourages and enables them to lead healthy lives and make choices that support their wellbeing.
