Head of Diversity and Inclusion

2 weeks ago


London, United Kingdom The Royal British Legion Full time

Are you a passionate D&I professional, keen to drive positive change? Would you like to own, shape and deliver the D&I strategy for the UKs largest military charity?

We are looking for a Head of Diversity and Inclusion to join our People & OD senior leadership team at RBL and be a true custodian of our organisational diversity and inclusion strategic vision.

Inclusion at RBL is a key part of our values, as well as being a critical component of our culture alignment programme. You will be joining us as a great time, where our current strategy is now being refreshed and you will play a key part in developing that strategy with our senior leaders.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

You will recognise that RBL is complex and diverse in the communities who we both serve and who deliver our charitable aims. This role works across all of these communities, developing and supporting the delivery of our inclusion strategy for our staff, our members, our volunteers and also our partners across other miliary charities and government.

Reporting to the Executive Director: People & Organisational Development, some key responsibilities will include:

  • Develop and deliver the next RBL Diversity and Inclusion Strategy and implementation plans
  • Be the orchestrator of change for D&I work across all Directorates – influence, educate and engage leaders on how we communicate, engage and involve all of our people
  • Ensure D&I is woven into everything we do, across the services we deliver, the partnerships we forge and the beneficiaries we serve
  • Be a visible, ongoing, inclusion educator and champion ensuring regular communications across RBL to various communities, and support leaders and internal communications to weave inclusion across and through our communications channels
  • Identification and design of training opportunities and materials to promote equality, diversity, and inclusion

You will be a great relationship builder, confidant and be able to work across a variety of responsibilities and initiatives, with pace and credibility. Your proven experience of leading D&I related initiatives and programmes will be well utilised and you will be given the support and development to lead us on the next stage of our D&I journey.

Here at RBL, we aim to support our people and their wellbeing, with a package including generous paid holiday allowance and pension scheme contributions, and a range of optional benefits and discounts.

You will be contracted to our London, Haig House, Hub. Under our Future Working framework, there will be some flexibility for working remotely/at home, using our collaboration tools to work with colleagues but with a minimum expectation of two days/week connecting directly face-to-face with colleagues at the hub.

For more detailed information about the role, please see our Vacancy Information Pack attached to our direct advert.

RBL is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive organisation, reflecting the diversity of the armed forces community and of wider society. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and personal characteristics.

Closing Date: Sunday 2nd June 2024

We may close this vacancy early if we believe we have enough strong applications to be able to successfully fill the role(s). Interested candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
