Part-Time Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging (DI&B) Coordinator

Are you passionate about fostering a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive? We're looking for a proactive, organised and empathetic individual to join our team as a DI&B Coordinator.

This role is perfect for someone with a "can-do" attitude and a genuine desire to contribute to a positive and inclusive work environment. Reporting to the DI&B Advisor, you'll play a vital role in supporting our DI&B initiatives through event coordination, communication, and, crucially, diversity data analysis and reporting.

This is a part-time position, working 22.5 hours per week. The role is hybrid, however candidates must live within a reasonable commuting distance of our Leeds City Centre office, as regular on-site meetings and collaboration will be required.

What you'll do:

• Event & training coordination: Help organise and coordinate DI&B events, workshops, and training sessions. This includes managing logistics, scheduling, and communicating with participants and facilitators.
• Communication: Support internal communications related to DI&B initiatives, helping to draft internal announcements and updates, staff intranet pages, presentations and marker day celebrations. 
• Liaison: Act as a key point of contact for general DI&B inquiries, providing administrative and liaison support to the DI&B Advisor, People Operations team and the DI&B Forum.
• Engagement support: Assist in supporting the engagement activities of our internal staff Communities of Belonging and in building relationships with external partners.
• Data handling & analysis: Be responsible for collecting, organising, and analysing DI&B-related data, sensitively and confidentially. You'll help track key metrics, prepare reports, and identify trends to inform our DI&B Strategy. 
• General administration: Provide broader administrative and project support to the DI&B function as needed.

• Passion for DI&B: A genuine interest in and commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion, and belonging in the workplace.
• Organisational skills: Managing multiple tasks, prioritising effectively, and coordinating events and projects efficiently.
• Communication skills: An ability to convey information clearly, concisely and inclusively to diverse audiences.
• Data proficiency: Experience in handling numerical data, including collection, organisation, basic analysis, and reporting. Proficiency with either spreadsheets or data management tools is essential.
• Subject matter interest: An eagerness to contribute to creating engaging and informative content relating to all kinds of human diversity.
• Proactive mindset: A "can-do" attitude, a willingness to learn, and a positive and proactive approach to problem-solving and navigating ambiguity.
• Self-awareness & empathy: An ability to self-reflect and take a sensitive and empathetic approach to understanding and interacting with people from all backgrounds.

No specific qualifications are required for this role; instead, we're looking for individuals with transferable experience from any previous roles or activities that demonstrate the skills, interests and behaviours outlined above.

Why join us?

You'll be part of a team dedicated to making a real difference in our workplace culture. This is an excellent opportunity to gain foundational experience in the growing field of Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging, contributing directly to an environment where everyone in our herd can thrive.
