Equal opportunities

We aim to ensure that no candidate or employee receives less favourable treatment on the ground of race (including colour, nationality, ethnic or national origins) religion or belief, age, gender reassignment, marital status, sex, sexual orientation or disability.

Selection criteria and procedures are reviewed to ensure that individuals are selected, promoted and treated on the basis of their relevant merits and abilities.

All employees will be given equality of opportunity and, where appropriate and possible, special training to enable them to progress both within and outside the organisation.

NCVO is committed to a continuing programme of action to make this policy effective and bring it to the attention of all employees.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

NCVO is fully committed to equity, diversity and inclusion in our sector. We want this to be reflected in the diversity of the people who work for us and we welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and identities.

We particularly welcome applications from under-represented groups in the voluntary sector and those with diverse, lived experience. As part of our commitment to employing disabled people, all disabled candidates who meet the minimum requirement for all competencies on the person specification will be guaranteed an interview.

If you have access needs or require reasonable adjustments as part of the recruitment process, please let us know.

Shortlisted candidates will be asked to complete a pre-interview task and will have one week to complete the exercise. Interview question themes will be shared in advance. NCVO is an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applications from everyone.
