¹û¶³Ó°Ôº

We have busy, busy lives at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. Our day jobs take up a huge amount of our thinking and action. So it can be frustrating when the things that should be simple can seem unnecessarily convoluted.Ìý

In our personal lives, our expectation is that the things we need to do online will be simple and straightforward, because if they’re not we take our time, our attention, and our wallets elsewhere. Booking a holiday? Buying a train ticket? Switching utility providers? We hope – indeed, we demand - that these services just work.Ìý

Then we come to work, and booking leave or trying to find someone’s contact details can take us to several different websites and logins across the university – things sometimes aren’t as joined-up as we’d like them to be. Ìý

Well, we have some very good news to share - is the staff experience app that aims to make your admin life at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº that little bit easier.Ìý

Built by a team of colleagues from across Professional Services, our partners Zensar, and sponsored by Vice-President (Operations) Fiona Ryland, Inside ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº is designed to be used both on the go and at your desk. . And this is just the start of a personalised service that will eventually include all the quick task completions, easy to find information and alerts to new actions that our staff tell us they want.Ìý

This app is not a replacement for MyHR, Office 365 or the current staff intranet. We’ve just taken the first of those high volume, less complex tasks the majority of us do, and piloted a different way of presenting some of those simple tasks in a more user-friendly interface. ÌýÌý
