  • Knowledge of digital and physical accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG, BS 8878, ISO 30071-1)

  • Strong communication and facilitation skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.


We’re looking for someone who may also have (preferred):

About working for us

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture. 


We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative. And it’s why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups. 


We’re disability confident. So if you’d like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:

  • A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
