Reminder – Complete the Colleague Engagement Survey
04 Apr 2025
The survey is now open and runs until Tuesday, 22 April

The survey, which only takes 5 – 10 minutes to complete, is an important way for all colleagues to share how engaged they feel in the work they do, what they value most about working here and where things could, and should, be better.
It’s your opportunity to be totally open and honest and tell us what what’s working and what isn’t – the more honest you are, the more valuable this survey is for everyone.
The survey is confidential (delivered by an independent survey partner People Insight).
How to take part
- Email – You will receive an email from People Insight with reminders each Monday until you submit the survey. If you have a ‘focussed’ inbox on Outlook you may need to check your ‘other’ folder or Junk folder.
- StaffNet – You can access the survey via a link on StaffNet – you will need to put in your Employee ID number (on your ID card) to access the survey this way. This is to verify you are eligible to take part in the survey.
- Posters – Simply scan the QR code displayed on posters around campus to access the survey online.
Prize draw
Everyone who completes the survey will have the option to be entered into a series of prize draws taking place every Tuesday and Friday whilst the survey is live where you could win £100 of Love2Shop vouchers – that’s nine opportunities to win throughout the survey. Winners will be selected at random by People Insight.
Winners so far:
- Stephen Craig – Optometry
- Penny Titterington – Graphene Enterprise and Innovation Centre
- Carrie Pierce – Directorate of Planning
What about the results?
Completing the survey is just one part of this process and the results and action planning is even more important.
We will share results openly and transparently and leaders from all parts of the University will have access to the People Insight reporting dashboard so they can view and share their local reports with colleagues.
