Maximus is committed to developing, maintaining and supporting a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion throughout the recruitment process. We know that feeling included has a dramatic impact on personal well‑being and are working to ensure that no job applicant receives less favourable treatment due to any personal characteristic.

We are a Disability Confident Leader, with a guaranteed interview for any applicant with a disability who meets the minimum requirements for the job. When you complete your job application, you will find a question asking if you would like to apply under the Disability Confident Guaranteed Interview Scheme. If you feel you have a disability and apply under this scheme, you will be invited for an interview. Your guaranteed interview application will only be shared with the hiring manager and the local resourcing team. Where reasonable, Maximus will review and consider adjustments for those applicants who express a requirement for them during the recruitment process.
