Equitable Opportunities: As you would expect we are deeply committed to equality, equity, diversity, and inclusion. We recognise that to achieve all we want cannot happen without a wide and varied contribution to our thoughts, plans and ideas. We want and need a broad range of people around our table. Having a unique, rich and diverse team is important to us and means we get the best people doing the job because they bring with them a rich tapestry of creativeness and experience. We strive to ensure that certain voices in our communities are amplified and heard to ensure that things we may never think let alone consider are included in our plans and aims. Our future is positive and we make no apologies when we say we want our team to include people who are Black, Brown or Minoritised, Working Class, LGBTQIA+, Disabled and of a wide range of ages. So that we can monitor how we are doing in this regard, who is applying and what their backgrounds are, we ask you to complete this form and return it with your application.
Completion of the form is voluntary. Returned forms will be separated from job applications and used solely for monitoring purposes.
The information collected will be treated in the strictest confidence and will be used only for the purpose of furthering and improving our aim of creating equitable opportunities.
Before you apply: We cannot tell a lie, working in anti-racism and being consistently confronted by the impact of racism (for some whilst being impacted personally by racism too) is hard work and it requires the ability to be robust. Sadly racism never sleeps and the environment is fast-paced and at times requires reactivity as well as proactivity. Your welfare and wellbeing is vital and we offer both internal and external support as well as flexible working and more holidays to help with this, but we think it is important you understand that this work can be emotive, challenging and potentially triggering before you begin.
