I am writing to let you know that David has decided to retire from his role as Pro-Vice Chancellor, Development and External Affairs at the end of Michaelmas term 2023.
David is taking up a new role for the UK government, to create and Chair the UKIFS (UK Industrial Fusion Solutions), the delivery authority to build the world’s first fusion power plant. He will continue to provide the University with support on various strategic projects until the end of April 2024.
