We invite HR Directors and Chief People Officers and their deputies to join us on 24 and 25 June for UHR’s 2025 Senior HR Summit. After the success of last year, we will be in Liverpool again for another two days of networking, learning and reflection. Senior HE HR professionals highly value this safe space to learn together, discuss strategy and talk freely with peers away from distractions. This event is designed specifically to meet those needs amongst our senior colleagues and is open to HRDs/CPOs – with a chance to bring along a Deputy/equivalent colleague working at a senior level who would see this event as a development opportunity.
Two-day tickets for the event are available for £180pp + VAT. This includes lunch on both days, refreshment breaks, an evening dinner on Day 1, and of course a programme packed full of thought-provoking, interesting speakers and networking opportunities. No ticket options will include accommodation and delegates need to book their own accommodation.
Accommodation - if you would like to stay at the Crowne Plaza City Centre where the Summit is being held, we have secured a room rate of £155pp bed and breakfast for the night of the 24th June. A booking link will be provided in your booking confirmation. Please ensure you book straight away if you intend to stay at the Crowne Plaza as rooms are not reserved and this rate will only be available until the hotel reaches capacity. There are lots of other hotels in the area to suit a range of budgets.
We hope that delegates will be able to join us for the entire event but our options have been chosen to give you flexibility should you need this.
Day tickets - We recognise that some colleagues aren’t able to attend both days and we will therefore be offering a small number of day tickets for both Day 1 and Day 2. A ticket for Day 1 includes a full day with dinner in the evening, priced at £135pp and a ticket for Day 2 is a full day with lunch priced at £120pp.
Day 1 (24 June): Full day from c.11am including refreshment breaks, lunch and an evening Dinner finishing at approximately 9.30pm. £135pp + VAT
Day 2 (25 June): Full day from 9.15 am to c.3.45pm, including lunch and refreshment breaks. £120 + VAT
2nd Delegate - As well as the HR Director/Chief People Officer, a Deputy working at a senior level can also attend.
