Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Officer / Hysbyseb Swyddog Cydraddoldeb, Amrywiaeth a Chynhwysiant Remote
Job description
We are looking for an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Officer to join our small team. This is an exciting position which will offer the right candidate the opportunity to work in the regulatory sector to drive EDI in the solicitors’ profession. This is a hybrid role, with one or two days in the office (Birmingham, London or Cardiff) and the rest at home.
The role
As part of a small team working in the SRA’s Strategy and Innovation directorate, you will have an opportunity to work on a range of ambitious projects to deliver the SRA’s strategic EDI priorities. You will work with solicitors, law firms and other stakeholders, to better understand the EDI challenges facing the profession and share best practice. You will promote awareness of our EDI work in the profession, including through events and social media. You will work with colleagues across the business, providing expert advice and guidance on EDI matters to help us meet our public sector equality duties. You will be able to contribute to our inclusive culture and may have an opportunity to support with our internal EDI training and policies, but this is not an HR role.
What’s in it for you
- You will be working for an inclusive organisation that is ambitious in driving EDI in the solicitors profession
- You will be working in partnership with a wide variety of internal and external stakeholders
- You will have the opportunity to develop your understanding and expertise across all diversity characteristics.
What we’re looking for
- Experience of developing and delivering creative EDI initiatives to meet the public sector equality duties and drive change in the profession
- Up to date knowledge of legislation and best practice on EDI
- Excellent communication skills
- Experience of analysing and evaluating information and data and presenting written findings and formal reports
- Ability to build good relationships and work collaboratively with a diverse range of external and internal stakeholders
- Ability to work flexibly and balance competing deadlines having regard to customers' needs and the needs of the SRA

Dyma swydd gyffrous a fydd yn cynnig cyfle i'r ymgeisydd cywir weithio yn y sector rheoleiddio i sbarduno EDI ym mhroffesiwn y cyfreithwyr. Rôl hybrid yw hon, gydag un neu ddau ddiwrnod yn y swyddfa (Birmingham, Llundain neu Gaerdydd) a'r gweddill gartref.
Y Rôl:
Fel rhan o dîm bach sy'n gweithio yng nghyfarwyddiaeth Strategaeth ac Arloesi'r SRA, cewch gyfle i weithio ar ystod o brosiectau uchelgeisiol i gyflawni blaenoriaethau strategol yr SRA ar gyfer EDI. Byddwch yn gweithio gyda chyfreithwyr, ffyrmiau cyfraith a rhanddeiliaid eraill, i ddeall yn well yr heriau EDI sy'n wynebu'r proffesiwn a rhannu’r arferion gorau. Byddwch yn hybu ymwybyddiaeth o'n gwaith EDI yn y proffesiwn, gan gynnwys trwy ddigwyddiadau a’r cyfryngau cymdeithasol. Byddwch yn gweithio gyda chydweithwyr ar draws y busnes, gan ddarparu cyngor ac arweiniad arbenigol ar faterion EDI i'n helpu i gyflawni’n dyletswyddau cydraddoldeb yn y sector cyhoeddus. Byddwch yn gallu cyfrannu at ein diwylliant cynhwysol ac efallai y cewch gyfle i gefnogi'n hyfforddiant a'n polisïau EDI mewnol, ond nid rôl Adnoddau Dynol yw hon.
Yr hyn y gallwn ei gynnig i chi:
- Byddwch yn gweithio i sefydliad cynhwysol sy'n uchelgeisiol wrth sbarduno EDI ym mhroffesiwn y cyfreithwyr

- Cewch gyfle i ddatblygu’ch dealltwriaeth a'ch arbenigedd ar draws yr holl nodweddion amrywiaeth.
Yr hyn rydyn ni'n chwilio amdano:
- Profiad o ddatblygu a chyflwyno mentrau EDI creadigol i gyflawni dyletswyddau cydraddoldeb y sector cyhoeddus a sbarduno newid yn y proffesiwn
- Gwybodaeth gyfoes o’r ddeddfwriaeth a’r arferion gorau ynglŷn ag EDI
- Sgiliau cyfathrebu rhagorol
- Profiad o ddadansoddi a gwerthuso gwybodaeth a data a chyflwyno canfyddiadau ysgrifenedig ac adroddiadau ffurfiol
- Y gallu i feithrin perthynas dda a gweithio ar y cyd ag ystod amrywiol o randdeiliaid allanol a mewnol
- Y gallu i weithio'n hyblyg a chydbwyso terfynau amser cyferbyniol gan roi sylw i anghenion y cwsmeriaid ac anghenion yr SRA
Gwybodaeth ddefnyddiol ac ychwanegol
Mae proffil rôl llawn ynghlwm ar waelod yr hysbyseb hon ar ein gwefan.
Bydd angen rhywfaint o deithio i swyddfeydd eraill yr SRA, neu ar gyfer cyfarfodydd gyda rhanddeiliaid neu i fod yn bresennol mewn digwyddiadau. Yr ystodau cyflog ar gyfer y rôl a leolir yn Birmingham neu Gaerdydd yw £29,680 - £34,920, a £32,648 - £38,412 ar gyfer Llundain.
