Leadership Team

At the CDT, we operate under a streamlined, effective management structure.

Management and Governance Structure

Our effective management structure is comprised of:

  •  A Leadership Team (LT) supported by the CDT Operations Team, focused on tactical decisions
  •  A Strategic Advisory Board (SAB), focused on helping us improve and deliver


Our Leadership Team:


The Leadership Team is supported by the CDT Operations Team:

  • Kelli Cassidy, Centre Manager – ensures the smooth day-to-day operation of the CDT

Strategic Advisory Board (SAB)

The SAB, as an independent group, will be instrumental in the continuous improvement of the CDT through constructive criticism. It will provide this through meetings with the CDT Director and student representative both together and separately and providing feedback on observations arising from these conversations as well as annual reports.

The SAB is made up of the following members:

The Leadership Team also includes representatives of all stakeholder groups, with the aim of ensuring that all involved have an inclusive experience.
