What you’ll bring

• Proven experience working in an inclusion role in a business setting or of delivering inclusion responsibilities as part of a wider professional remit

• Exceptional emotional intelligence required for providing challenge and advice on sensitive matters related to inclusion, aiming to improve knowledge

• Highly organised with excellent long-term and short-term planning capabilities required to manage multiple priorities and deliver to deadlines effectively
