THE University of Plymouth's ViceChancellor, Professor Dame Judith Petts, earned more than £320,000 in her last year in the post, new figures show.
The professor, who retired in September last year, saw her salary increase by more than £10,000, to £303,190 in her final year, but this was offset by a drop of nearly £10,000 in pension contributions, which still amounted to £17,345.
Overall, her total remuneration, including healthcare benefits, was £323,778, up by just £1,926 on the previous year. It had increased steadily over the years, with her earning £307,921 in 2021/22.
The university considered Prof Petts, also the university's chief executive, to be worth every penny of her pay packet.
