First impressions count. A strong and engaging staff profile on the Keele University website will help visitors (including students, prospective students, and other academics) associate your name with your face and title, and allows your personality and expertise to shine through.

This is important because your staff profile page will likely be the first page a visitor sees after Googling your name.

In fact, the website saw over 200k visits to staff pages during the 2021/22 academic year.

Your staff profile can include a biography, details of your research, teaching, publications (automatically populated from symplectic), and optional tabs such as videos and roles. Here is a great example of an engaging staff profile — keele.ac.uk/psychology/people/richardstephens.

Updating your staff profile is now easier than ever

Changes to staff profiles are made centrally by Strategic Communications and Brand. Find out how to request changes here.

Can I have a new photo?

Yes, you can! Strategic Communications and Brand also hold monthly photoshoots in the Claus Moser building (room CM1.04). The team then upload your photo to the website for you. The next photoshoot will take place on Wednesday 7th December, and further dates will be advertised via the staff intranet.
