Dr Martin will join the University on 27 April taking up her role in the senior management of the College and leading the professional services across the College, comprising 11 Schools and more than 20,000 students.

I am delighted to be joining the University of Edinburgh at what is an exciting time. I am very much looking forward to using my experience of working both within and outside Higher Education to lead a professional administrative team which enables the College of Humanities & Social Science and all of its staff and students to build on their considerable successes to date.
