As part of the nomination process, nominees are required to create a profile and supply a high-quality professional image smaller than 8MB (150px x 150px portrait). This profile and photo will be viewable to all staff on the external voting election site during the voting period.
Nominees will also need to upload evidence of nomination by two staff (from the same category). This must be in the form of a saved email. * e.g., if you are a level E academic staff member your nominators need to be academic staff, but not necessarily another level E member.
