Staff news

Colleagues recognised for their long service

The Principal hosted a ceremony earlier this week (Tuesday 5 December) to recognise the dedication of staff who have been with the University for 25 years or more.

The annual event at the Playfair Library, brought together 124 staff from across the University to celebrate their long service.

A group are chatting happily in the Playfair Library at the long service ceremony

I am profoundly humbled every time we pay tribute to our longest-serving colleagues. My sincere thanks and admiration to you all on behalf of myself and all the members of the University of Edinburgh community who have benefited from your decades of loyal service.
