As the largest employer in Â鶹¹ú²ú, we have approximately 5,500 staff who speak over 26 different languages. We pride ourselves on the diversity of our workforce, with staff members from all over the world and different walks of life. We’re an inclusive workplace, where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves. Equality sits at the heart of everything we do, and we ensure that all employees have equal opportunity to develop, to apply for promotions, and to work flexibly.
A key part of how we support our diverse workforce is through our six Staff Networks:
Our Networks are one of our greatest assets, providing a safe space for discussion of issues relevant to that group, helping to raise awareness of issues within the whole workforce, providing individual support to colleagues who may face challenges at work and offer a collective voice to the Trust leadership.Ìý
Listen to our in-house podcast 'Cake with Joe and Jayne', where our staff talk about various topics, including Race and Place, Prejudice and the Power of Inclusion.
