The Bumblebee Conservation Trust is an Equal Opportunities employer. This means that whilst seeking employment or during such employment with the Trust, we will seek to ensure equality of treatment for all persons regardless of sex, race, age, marital or civil partnership status, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy or maternity status.

We recognise that candidates with a disability or from ethnically diverse backgrounds are under-represented in our organisation, and that there are often additional barriers present for people from these groups when applying for roles in the charity sector and beyond. We are committed to taking positive action to expand the diversity of our staff team through the Trust EEDI Interview Scheme (EIS). Applicants who apply through the Trust EIS and who meet the minimum criteria for the role will be offered an interview.

In the event of a high-volume of applicants who tick this box, then selection for interview will be those who best meet the minimum criteria for the post rather than all of those that meet the minimum criteria, in the same way as we do for applicants who do not opt in to the EIS. It is important to note that this scheme guarantees an interview for candidates who meet or best meet the essential criteria and tell us that they’d like to be considered under the scheme. The selection decision at interview will be based on the most suitable candidate, regardless of any protected characteristic.

Access to the Trust EIS simply requires an applicant who identifies as being disabled or from an ethnically diverse background to answer ‘yes’ to the question on the application form ‘do you wish to be considered under the Trust EEDI Interview Scheme?’. How we use your personal information: The information which we gather from you during the recruitment and selection process is retained and processed in accordance with the provisions set out by the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) and further to the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). Please note that by submitting an application for employment, you are accepting that you have read and understood our Data Protection and Privacy Policy for Job Applicants.
