Lisa Wakefield
Deputy Dean of Education
University of Leicester

I am an experienced academic working as a teaching focused leader in Higher Education. Prior to starting work as an academic I trained as a Chartered Accountant and held roles in a number of accounting practices and as a group accountant for a large national organisation. I use this practical experience to underpin the theoretical content of my teaching. I am passionate about developing high quality student focused higher education for all students within the University of Leicester Business school.

I am current Associate Dean: Learning and Teaching – Quality and Development and am responsible for ensuring the academic quality of the education provision within the school.

I am a qualified Chartered Accountant and Fellow of the ICAEW (FCA), a Senior Fellow of Advance HE (SFHEA), a Chartered Management and Business Educator (CMBE) with the Chartered Association of Business Schools, and Associate Member of the Association of Learning Technology (ALT).
