When technical staff have a seat at the table, everyone benefits. It breaks down silos, boosts efficiency and strengthens the sector as a whole, says Jiteen Ahmed: https://www.timeshighereducation.com/campus/technical-knowledge-and-expertise-more-valuable-you-think #Academia #HigherEd #AcademicSky

“Australia collects more money from students, nurses & teachers than from Petroleum Resources Rent Tax (PRRT) – tax on super-profits of oil & gas cos.

PRRT has extensive loopholes allowing oil & gas producers to minimise or avoid paying it altogether.”

Headcount of permanent jobs at Cambridge University

In 2024, administrative positions outnumbered academic by about 3 to 2
