Dr Ross Kemble

I have been at the University of Suffolk for the past 3 years, during this time, I have acquired several different roles and redesigned a number of postgraduate programmes.  As Programme Leader I am responsible for the academic management and development of the SEMBA, Senior Leaders Apprenticeship and International Business Management programmes.  I have had to display I strong aptitude for academic task management and people management when leading a team of academics teaching on the programmes previously mentioned.  I always attempt to ensure a high-quality focus is maintained regarding our teaching, learning and assessment and sit on the Excellence in Learning and Teaching at the University.

Prior to my role current role, I had 5 years’ experience as working as the Postgraduate Research (PGR) Researcher Development Programme Manager at Anglia Ruskin University.  Along with a further 5 years’ experience within Anglia Ruskin University business school, working initially as an Associate Lecturer moving onto a Lecturer position.
