Prior to that, Bailey was Deputy President and Deputy Vice-Chancellor at the University of Manchester[1]. He is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Structural Engineers and a member of the Institution of Fire Engineers. BiographyBailey left school at 16 to start work as an apprentice draughtsman at a construction firm in London, and worked for several design consultants. Aged 22, he began a degree in civil and structural engineering at the University of Sheffield, graduating with a first class BEng in 1992, followed by a PhD in 1995,[2] and postdoctoral work in building fire safety.[3] He joined the University of Manchester in 2002 as Professor of Structural Engineering, and became Head of the School of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering in 2007. His leadership achievements at Manchester include the launch of high profile research projects, including the BP International Centre for Advanced Materials, the National Graphene Institute (£61m of funding support) and the Sir Henry Royce Institute (£283m of funding).[4] As a non-executive director, he is on the boards of several charities and organisations.[5] Bailey is author of more than 120 research papers and practical design guides, and has been awarded nine prizes for his research work. His main specialties are fire safety engineering of structures, membrane action, wind loading and steel-concrete composite systems.[6] Bailey is one of the four experts to sit on a Government independent expert advisory panel on building safety,[7] set up in December 2017 to advise on immediate safety action following the Grenfell Tower fire, and chaired by Sir Ken Knight, former London Fire Commissioner and former Government Chief Fire and Rescue Adviser. In 2018, Bailey was awarded an Honorary Professorship by Northwestern Polytechnical University (NPU) in China.
