The Finance and Planning Group (FPG) was established in mid-2009, through the merger of the former University Planning Office and Financial Operations, to provide senior strategic leadership on all aspects of financial management and University planning.
It aims to provide high quality, professional advice and services to all University clients to ensure that appropriate financial and business considerations are built into all key strategic and operational developments.
It is tasked with a wide range of roles relating to University planning and policy development, managing the University’s financial, capital and other resources, monitoring its performance, and managing risk and quality. The FPG provides the key coordination point for all financial and a broad spectrum of non-financial reporting and performance analysis to Senior Executive and Council (and its relevant committees), and liaison with external agencies and stakeholders, including the DEEWR, DIISR and the State Government.
The Finance and Planning Group works with Commercialisation Services and the Melbourne Research Office.
