The University will make the following grants (pro rata to part-time staff) in respect of a first appointment to the University from within or outside the United Kingdom:

The equivalent of the cost of the lower of two acceptable tenders for furniture removal for the member of staff, provided that one of the tenders is accepted and the grant claimed within twelve months of the commencement of the appointment. The grant will be made on presentation to the Human Resources Department of both tenders, one of which must be receipted. The tenders must relate to the removal of furniture and personal effects of the member of staff from a previous residence in the United Kingdom or overseas in one move to Nottingham. When a member of staff moves at a lower cost by hiring a self-drive van the grant will be the cost of the van hire and petrol used.

In certain circumstances, and only after prior agreement by the Director of Human Resources, a member of staff’s furniture may be removed to warehouse storage pending the availability of accommodation and in such cases the University will pay for warehouse storage costs and insurance up to a maximum of 26 weeks and for delivery to the final address in the Nottingham area.

The items listed below can be claimed on the presentation of receipted invoices, up to the equivalent amount of one month’s gross salary (based on your salary at the start date of this appointment) or up to £2,500, whichever is the greater.

I. estate agent's fees, or alternatively advertising costs or auctioneer's charges;II. legal charges, including payment of stamp duty (limited to stamp duty payable on value

of property sold), land registry fees, local authority searches, etc;III. building society or equivalent survey costs.

The total grant payable for the above must be claimed within twelve months of the commencement of the appointment.

The above grants will be made in the expectation that the member of staff will remain in the post for at least two years. The University will reclaim the following value of the grants if the employee;

- leaves the University within 12 months of appointment = full repayment- leaves the University within 1 year - 18 months service = 75% repayment- leaves the University within 18 months - 2 years service = 50% repayment
