CareerPeter Toyne was a senior lecturer in geography at the University of Exeter before deciding to leave in 1978 in order to become head of Bishop Otter College, Chichester, and then later becoming Rector of North East London Polytechnic (now: University of East London). In 1986, he left South England for Liverpool, where he became the founding First Vice-Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University.
