We are looking for a motivated and collaborative Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Lead to drive forward Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB).

About Us:
The Society and College of Radiographers (SOR/COR) are two separate companies operating together to provide service and support for those involved in radiography. Together they comprise the professional body and trade union for those practicing in medical imaging and radiotherapy. The Society of Radiographers has an exciting opportunity to join our team with a wide remit across the organisation.

We are looking for a positive and knowledgeable leader with the experience, skills, capacity, and enthusiasm to influence and lead on all aspects of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging across the SOR/COR.

About the Role:
This role will have lead oversight of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB), working cross organisationally to create a dynamic, aspirational, and ambitious DEIB culture both within the SOR/COR and amongst SOR member workplaces.

We are creating a culture that reflects the diversity of the world around us and where employees & members have confidence and ability to challenge discrimination and structural barriers to inclusion throughout the profession, in workplaces, education and radiography practice.

Working inter-departmentally, with colleagues, networks and members, this role will develop a long term DEIB strategy that supports our strategy and embeds DEIB into everything we do, with a strong focus on collecting, analysing and using data to inform action plans and measure success. With strong leadership and ambassadorial skills, this role will be instrumental in challenging discrimination and non-inclusive behaviours that may arise in the workplace.

DEIB is everyone's responsibility at the SOR/COR, but this role will be the subject matter expert, interpreting DEIB standards, best practice, and legislation. The role will help colleagues, leaders, officers, and members understand their collective and individual responsibilities.

What We're Looking For:
This is a pivotal role for the SOR/COR and you will have demonstrable successful experience in the field of equality, diversity and inclusion, particularly within the context of facilitating culture change and organisational development in organisations.
In your application, you will be able to demonstrate your experience of championing equality, diversity and inclusion and effective management of projects. Collaborative working skills across organisations with the ability to establish and maintain good working relationships internally and externally, whilst championing EDI is a key requirement.

We want you to call out inappropriate behaviours and help others develop an understanding of their role in building an inclusive culture where everyone can be who they chose to be at work and where everyone is valued regardless of their background or status.

You will possess an empathetic understanding of issues around discrimination and marginalisation, coupled with a strong working knowledge of relevant legislation, latest reports, and research relevant to the lived experiences of those from marginalised backgrounds or those with protected characteristics.

About EFA

English for Action provides free, participatory, and empowering English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)  classes for migrants in London. Our classes are spaces to build community and support students to organise collectively around issues like employment and housing rights. Our work currently supports around 400 adult migrants across London. We’ve become a national centre of good practice for a radical participatory approach to ESOL, informed by the work of Paulo Freire, and we share this approach through training, research and partnerships. 

Organisation: We are a staff team of 8 people supported by a larger team of volunteers and 9 trustees. EFA promotes shared leadership and collaboration and we aim for our organisational structure to reflect this. In the last 4 years we’ve transitioned away from having a CEO to an executive team to oversee operations and decision-making. As a charity, ultimate responsibility for, and control of, the organisation lies with the Board of Trustees. 

Fundraising at EFA: We have one permanent fundraiser at EFA, who works two days per week on this area of work. The majority of EFA’s funding comes from charitable trusts and foundations but we are also funded directly by some of our partner institutions to provide courses for their members. We receive some local authority/EU funding as well. We raise additional funds through individual giving, corporate relationships and earned income. We are keen to explore new areas of fundraising and/or develop some of our less well established income streams. 

EFA employee benefits include: 

• Pension scheme with employer matched contribution, currently at 6%. 

• Pay rises in line with inflation wherever possible (we have a flat pay structure). 

• Tech and cycle scheme.

• Flexible working possible based on your needs. 

• Continuous Personal Development actively encouraged and training opportunities explored. 

• Enhanced annual leave: starts with 24 days per annum pro rata, rising to 32 days per annum pro rata plus Bank Holidays (pro-rata for part-time hours) after probation, with some restrictions on when holidays must be taken.

• Full entitlement to days off for sickness (including mental ill-health), compassionate leave, bereavement leave, and parental leave. 

• Enhanced maternity/paternity/adoption/shared parental leave pay. 

• Enhanced sick pay. 

• Collaborative decision making on organisational strategy and practice.

• Working within an organisation that makes a huge difference in communities across London and the UK. 

Equal opportunities

EFA strives to apply equal opportunities principles both in its recruitment and in its work. We oppose all forms of unlawful or lawful discrimination on the grounds of colour, race, nationality, ethnic or national origin, gender, sexuality, marital status, religion, age or disability. 

The successful candidate will be selected purely on the basis of how well they fit the person specification, as judged by their application materials and their interview. 

We would particularly like to encourage applications from people of colour / black or brown people, who are currently underrepresented in EFA (as well as the non-profit sector as a whole). As an organisation which works with migrant ESOL learners, we also particularly welcome applications from people who have experienced moving to the UK, people who have learnt ESOL before and people who have English as an additional language. 

Where two or more candidates are judged to be of equal merit, priority may be given to a candidate who belongs to a less well-represented group.
