We strongly encourage the applications of people from structurally oppressed communities, and those who share some of the identities of our service users. In particular, our organisation will benefit from increasing the representation of BAM (Black, Asian and Mixed Heritage) people, trans* and non-binary people, and men in our staff teams.
