Diversity and Inclusion at DBT
We are committed to inclusive and diverse leadership, and we welcome applications from under-represented groups and those based across the whole of the UK. To learn more please see the Civil Service People Plan and Civil Service D&I Strategy.
We treat everyone openly, fairly and equally, and we collaborate proactively with a can-do attitude, inspiring others to want to engage with us. We respect each other's views regardless of background, and we do not discriminate. We are one department, we have a shared culture across our diverse, global organisation. We celebrate our diversity of thought, coming from different backgrounds, places and experiences to deliver the best for the UK, our markets and our customers. And we are better for it.
Staff Networks
With a multitude of networks, there's something for EVERYONE.
Our networks support equality and showcase examples of inclusivity across the organisation. Each one has a senior champion to ensure they are heard at the top of the organisation.
Our networks pride themselves on working together, getting under the skin of intersectionality, championing allyship and education. Turning these collaborations into action plans which lead to real change.
Reasonable Adjustments
The Department is recognised as a Disability Confident Leader.
Please follow this link for information: Disability Confident employer scheme - GOV.UK
We are committed to attracting, recruiting and retaining disabled people and supporting them in achieving their full potential. If you need a change, or what we call a reasonable adjustment, to be made so that you can make your application, you should contact katie.attrill@hays.com as soon as possible before the closing date to discuss your needs.
Complete section B in the Disability Confident form to tell us what change or help you might need further on in the recruitment process. For instance, you may need wheelchair access at interview, or if you have a form of neurodivergence (e.g. ADHD, autism, dyslexia or dyspraxia) you may need extra time to take written tests or adjustments to the environment in which you’re interviewed.
