The Fundraising Regulator is committed to diversity, equality and inclusion. We want our workforce to be truly representative of the society we are here to support and protect, so that we’re able to regulate effectively. We also want each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. We do this by operating a fair and inclusive recruitment process, which aims to reach a diverse pool of candidates. This is also supported by a range of policies that encourage a flexible and supportive working environment.

We particularly encourage applications from people with Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds and people with disabilities as these groups are currently underrepresented at the Fundraising Regulator.
