The university told BBC News NI it is planning to cut the jobs through a voluntary redundancy scheme.

Unions say the university has financial challenges "because of decisions made" during a campus move.

It follows 13 days of industrial action over the past 17 months, according to union UCU.

A drop in international students has caused financial problems at The University of Sheffield.

The decision could make life harder for both staff and students who are parents, critics say.

Job losses affecting 76 members of staff could come as early as 1 November, a union says.

Sheffield Hallam says "financial challenges" mean staff will not get a pay rise this year.

The walkout comes after members of the University and College Union objected to a 3% pay offer.
