Staff Profile
Mark Wightman
Operations Manager
Background
Operations Manager at the School of Computing, which I joined in July 2019.
I am responsible for the School's Operations team, which runs the School Reception and provides administrational support to various academic groups and senior managers. I also directly support the School's EDI, global engagement, enterprise and Workload Allocation functions.
Previously, I worked in the University's Data Protection team, so I know a fair amount about GDPR, Data Access Requests and the Freedom of Information Act.
Prior to working at Newcastle, I had over 20 years' experience in Operations at Durham University.
