• Design and deliver impactful DEI initiatives that create meaningful outcomes and support an inclusive colleague experience.
• Partner with Talent, HR and business leaders to embed inclusion across the full colleague lifecycle — from attraction and recruitment through to development, performance and succession planning.
• Develop and deliver engaging DEI campaigns, events and communications that build awareness, encourage participation and increase visibility of inclusion activity.
• Provide strategic leadership and governance for Colleague Resource Groups, enabling them to deliver sustainable impact aligned to organisational priorities.
• Act as a trusted advisor to stakeholders, influencing decision-making and providing guidance on DEI approaches, interventions and emerging best practice.
• Own and maintain DEI policies, frameworks and toolkits, ensuring alignment with legislation and organisational priorities across operating geographies.
• Lead the collection, analysis and reporting of DEI data and metrics, translating insight into actions that support measurable progress.
• Monitor external trends, cultural developments and emerging practices to continuously evolve and strengthen the Group’s DEI approach.
• Represent the organisation through external networks, partnerships and industry initiatives where appropriate.

What you’ll bring

• Experience leading and implementing DEI programmes, initiatives and strategies within a complex organisation.
• Strong understanding of DEI principles, best practice and employment legislation across multiple geographies.
• Experience creating and embedding policies, frameworks and colleague-focused interventions.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to tailor initiatives and messaging to a broad range of audiences and cultures.
• Proven stakeholder management and influencing capability, with confidence operating at senior levels across the organisation.
• Experience using people data and metrics to measure impact and turn insight into meaningful action.
• Experience supporting or governing colleague resource groups and delivering organisation-wide DEI activity.
• Strong judgement, credibility and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
