Our commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Empower is a small team, but we work on causes that are global and affect people from marginalised groups the most. We recognise the makeup of our team should mirror this and that having a diverse and inclusive team empowers us to better serve our clients and the causes we support. Empower is committed to creating a diverse environment, where employees feel safe and empowered to share different ideas, perspectives and experiences in a collaborative and creative work environment. Equality and inclusion are at the heart of our culture. We recognise the strengths that our differences bring to the organisation, we celebrate the value in our different perspectives and we embrace the variety of lived experiences that enrich our team and our work. We welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life and we are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and Disability Confident Committed. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, disability, gender confirming surgery, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race (which includes colour, nationality and ethnic or national origins), religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation.
