Staff profiles

When you join Brunel you will be asked to set up your staff profile on the brunel.ac.uk website. The system is designed to make it easy for you to complete the majority of the fields where you can showcase your expertise and background and the more complete your profile, the better visibility there is for your achievements. 

The system used for Staff Profiles collects information about you from fields originating in a number of internal systems, such as CHIME, the Active Directory and BRAD, where you enter information about your publications, activities etc. In order for your Staff Profile to showcase your activities, we recommend that you aim to complete and keep your profile up-to-date in BRAD first before editing your external Staff Profile.  

Edit your profile

Simply go to your profile, log in with your Brunel username and password, and complete all the fields required. 

*Profiles take up to 31days to leave the system once a staff member leaves.
