Senior Managers’ Pay and Performance Ratings

Rating / Definition
Outstanding / You have consistently achieved results well beyond your job responsibilities and objectives and, in doing so you have exemplified the LSBU’s Values. You also have demonstrated a proactive approach in delivering additional activities or goals throughout the year.
Your performance stands out as excellent and has been recognised as such by senior management, customers and stakeholders. It has had a significant impact on achieving the University’sCorporate Plan and your School/Professional Services function’s Local Delivery Plan.
Good* / You have achieved your job responsibilities and objectives in an effective manner and, in doing so;have demonstrated the LSBU’s Values. You have also demonstrated a flexible approach to delivering additional activities and goals you have been required to take on during the year.
Your performance has enhanced the results of your team or department and has contributed to the achievement of LSBU’s Corporate Plan and your School/Professional Services function’s Local Delivery Plan.
Developing / You have demonstrated potential but as yet, you may not be effectively achieving all of your job responsibilities and objectives or doing so in a manner that fully demonstrates the LSBU’s Values. It is expected that with development and, in some cases, experience in the role, you will achieve good performance. Advice and guidance will be given to help you achieve the improvement required through your learning and development plan.
Underperforming / You have not consistently achieved your key job responsibilities and objectives and your performance does not currently meet expected performance standards either in one specific area or generally across the range of your job responsibilities. Your performance needs to improve to an acceptable standard and a plan of action to achieve this will be agreed with you.
