Kerry Drysdale

Kerry joined the University in 2015 on a part-time DUTE placement as a Recruitment Assistant in HR, before moving to her current role in the Development and Alumni Relations Office (DARO) as a Database Administrator in September of that year. As part of the Operations Team, Kerry is responsible for maintaining the alumni and donor database, donation processing (including Ninewells Cancer Campaign), maintaining our web content and general administrative tasks.

Kerry graduated from the University of St Andrews with a BSc in Biochemistry, and later an MRes in Cancer Biology from the University of Dundee. Although she has since moved on from academia, she retains an interest and passion for science, and highly rates the research and teaching in Dundee. As an alumna, Kerry was eligible to be part of the Dundee University Temporary Employment (DUTE) scheme, which eventually led to her full-time employment with the University. She is proud to be working for the institution where she received a rewarding postgraduate education.
