Therefore, we expect this work to adapt as this happens, whilst being grounded in our mission and values. We have a desire to be a learning organisation that ensures our people feel like they belong and diversity in all its forms, is understood, respected and welcomed. 

This role leads an evolutionary and values-based approach to our focus on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging, within Christian Aid. Our aim is to ensure that our values are living and breathing examples of who we are on the inside reflecting the commitment to the work we do on behalf of the organisation. Leading a small team but a big community of practice, this role will support the organisation and its leaders in living our values, creating a safe and welcoming place to work so that our people feel like they belong and are respected for each part of their unique identity.
