Environmental Race / Equality Officer

We are seeking a person with extensive experience and understanding of equality and diversity, especially around race equality to provide support to environmental sector organisations to help improve their capacity to tackle racial inequality and meet the needs of EM communities. In this role, you will have responsibility in providing consultancy support to environment sector organisations to help develop actions that tackle racial and other intersectional inequalities. Thus, you will require experience in the development of race equality policies and practices that address racial and intersectional inequalities. You will also be designing and delivering race equality training to wide audiences so good training skills are required, along with the ability to organize and deliver events that share good race equality polies and practices. Although you will be part of the environmental team, this project will complement our Race for Human Rights (R4HR) Programme and so you will also be working closely with the R4HR team as there will be areas of work where support or events can be co-delivered, including EM community engagement. If you are committed and enthusiastic about equalities, particularly around race, then this post will provide a great opportunity to help influence and progress race equality within the environmental sector., None specified
