School Manager's update

Published in the RSAA Lunations
Vol1 Issue64 1–31 July 2025

As you are aware, the ANU is undergoing a number of change proposals, with RSAA being affected by the CoSM Change Proposal. Fortunately, there are no staffing reductions proposed at RSAA; regrettably this is not the case in other schools.

For RSAA it is proposed that the administrative, operational and management support will cease reporting to the School, instead realigning to the College. We are additionally impacted by the Research and Innovations portfolio, with our Student Administration reporting to this division going forward. 

Proposed Realignments:
Executive Assistant - proposed to report to CoSM Administration Team 
Centre Administrator (Digital Comms /WHS) - proposed to report to CoSM Administration Team 
Senior Student Administrator – proposed to report to Research and Innovation Portfolio
School Manager – proposed to report to the CoSM General Manager

I encourage everyone to have a say and help shape the future of RSAA by submitting your feedback. The feedback form and and change proposal is available in the following linkFeedback closes at 12pm 7 August 2025.

If anyone feels impacted by the change, assistance is available via the employee assistance program.
