**About Us**

The FT has an uncompromising mission: delivering independent, quality information, news and services to individuals and companies around the globe. It’s the cornerstone of our reputation and the heart of our ambitions for the future. But for our people, the FT offers so much more than what we do. FT people come from all kinds of backgrounds and work across a huge range of disciplines and locations, and find an empowering, warm and welcoming culture that values curiosity and rewards smart, ambitious thinking. Those who are willing to unite around our mission and live our values will find plenty to challenge, inspire and interest them. Like the audiences we serve, no two FT people are the same; but together we help our audience be better informed and understand the world around them. It’s a job that’s never mattered more, and a career that can take you anywhere you want to go.

**Our commitment to Diversity and inclusion in the workplace**

At the FT, we give all employees a voice so that diverse perspectives are heard and valued. We believe that a supportive workplace is one where employees feel they can be themselves at work. We'll continue to remove barriers for all, and in particular barriers facing employees from underrepresented groups.

This is an opportunity to join a progressive and innovative Human Resources team, reporting to the Global HR director, and joining the FT’s senior management team. You will be responsible for providing in-depth diversity and inclusion expertise and advice and working in partnership with senior management and the HR team to deliver the FT’s global diversity & inclusion strategy - namely advancing our inclusive culture, representing diverse talent and communicating our D&I brand.

**Key Responsibilities**

- Provide development, mentoring, and guidance to our employee network groups and Next Generation Board.
- Use research & insight from external sources and competitors, including insight from our own employee engagement survey, to further develop our strategy, and make recommendations on diversity and inclusion opportunities for the FT.
- Pro-actively work with the business to ensure that diversity and inclusion is a key part of their people strategy.
- Collate data to ensure we continue to measure and monitor success.
- Review, make recommendations and implement changes to existing policy, process and systems and implement new initiatives based on recommendations to address systemic bias in the workplace.
- Work closely with the Communications team to ensure that diversity and inclusion strategies, initiatives and success stories are communicated and shared both internally and externally.

**Required Skills / Experience**
- Experience in a pure Diversity & Inclusion role with a proven track record of building and executing strategy and delivering success.
- Strong knowledge and understanding of Diversity & Inclusion best practice.
- Experience of implementing Diversity and Inclusion initiatives across a global remit.
- Awareness of global and cultural issues with knowledge and understanding of diversity within various cultures.
