[Academic] Launch of 2018 Strathclyde Global Talent Programme

[Paul McKenna]

Dear Colleagues,

The 2018 Strathclyde Global Talent Programme has just been launched. 
This scheme aims to appoint up to 75 exceptional academics (Professors / 
Readers and Strathclyde Chancellor’s Fellows) in strategically important 
research areas across the University.  The strategic themes and 
sub-themes are listed below. The closing date is Sunday 4 November.

Please identify exceptional potential candidates and bring this scheme 
to their attention. Further information is available at 
https://www.strath.ac.uk/workwithus/strathclydeglobaltalentprogramme/. 
Applicants will be asked to select themes and sub-themes, so please 
steer candidates towards the sub-theme they relate to (if this is not 
obvious).

HR are also asking for the following assistance with marketing the campaign:

  * Twitter:  HR will tweet regularly about the campaign and would ask
    that those of you who are Twitter users retweet any updates. They
    are using the hashtag #SGTP2018 and ask that you do the same.
  * LinkedIn: HR will post regularly on LinkedIn and would be very
    grateful if you would re-post LinkedIn updates.
  * Networking: Generally, if you attend events or conferences during
    the weeks ahead, please bring the Scheme to the attention of
    individuals who might be exceptional applicants.

We have an opportunity to discuss this at the DC on Friday.

Best wishes,
Paul*_
