About the organisational structure
The organisation chart, which describes the academic/management structure of the University, has three main purposes:
- to provide a common framework to underpin our four main data management systems: finance, staff records, student records and the space record system. Ensuring that each system structure maps to this framework (despite necessary differences) makes it possible to compare data from different systems;
- to act as a framework for resource allocation within the University; and
- to provide the basis for the University’s Provider Profile return to HESA.
The latest version of the University’s organisation chart can be downloaded from here: Organisational Structure (August 2023) (58.8kb).
Updates to the organisational structure
To seek changes to the Organisation Structure please contact PACS in the first instance to discuss what approvals, if any, are necessary for the change to be enacted. To formally request a change please complete an Org Structure Change Form (19 kb) and forward to the appropriate notifying officer (detailed on form), who will forward on to us. Please note changes cannot be enacted until they have received formal approval from necessary officers or committees.
All queries should be sent to orgstructure@admin.ox.ac.uk.
For further information on how the Organisation Structure is used and making changes to it, please see the following guidance: Organisation Structure Guidance (June 2017) (201kb)
