About us

We’re UCL, one of the world’s leading Universities and a member of the prestigious Russell Group. We have an enviable record for high quality teaching and research, a culture of promoting diversity and sustainability, and 30 Nobel laureates among our alumni and current and former staff. Founded in 1826 in the heart of London, we were the first university in England to welcome students of any religion and the first to welcome women on equal terms with men. Today UCL has over 50,000 students and 15,000 staff and is one of the world’s top 10 universities.

The central Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) team lies within the Office of the President and Provost, and was established to strategically advance equality, diversity and inclusion at UCL. The team draws from diverse expertise to provide expert advice, engagement and support to faculties and departments to advance inclusion initiatives and good practice at UCL. The structure and purpose of the team is to embed EDI initiatives into core business and mainstream the values on which UCL was founded.

About the role

The main purpose of the EDI Officer role is to support key EDI work, initiatives and projects, across the range of protected characteristics (for example, race equity interventions, supporting staff with reasonable adjustments and work on preventing and responding to harassment and sexual misconduct). The role will work with a wide range of stakeholders including students, staff and external stake holders to influence positive change. The post-holder will sit within the central EDI Team and be a first point of contact for queries and requests.

Interviews will take place in person on Monday 25 September.

About you

To be successful in this role, the post holder will have experience of working on equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) issues, activity and interventions, as well as a good knowledge of the Equality Act and its application. With project management experience, you will also have good time management and organisational skills. Your high-level communication skills will enable you to deliver training as well as advise stakeholders on sensitive and sometimes contentious issues. As such, it will be essential to work with integrity and sensitivity, respecting confidentiality where appropriate. Able to produce written documents and training materials to a high standard.

As a key member of the central EDI Team, we need a team player who is able to work flexibly and using initiative where appropriate.

As well as the exciting opportunities this role presents we also offer some great benefits some of which are below:

  • 41 Days holiday (including 27 days annual leave 8 bank holiday and 6 closure days)
  • Defined benefit career average revalued earnings pension scheme (CARE)

Our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

As London’s Global University, we know diversity fosters creativity and innovation, and we want our community to represent the diversity of the world’s talent. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive, and to being a place where we all belong.

We therefore particularly encourage applications from candidates who are likely to be underrepresented in UCL’s workforce.

These include people from Black, Asian and ethnic minority backgrounds; disabled people; LGBTQI+ people; and for our Grade 9 and 10 roles, women.
