Our Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
The Diocese of London is committed to creating and sustaining a diverse and inclusive workforce which represents our context and wider community.
We are aware that those of Global Majority Heritage/United Kingdom Minority Ethnic (GMH/UKME), women, and disabled people are currently under-represented among our clergy and workforce, and we particularly encourage applications from those with the relevant skills and experience that will increase this representation.
Our commitment to Safeguarding
The Diocese of London is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults.
Safeguarding is of the utmost importance at LDF. Because some of our roles involve working with vulnerable people, we take extra steps during recruitment to ensure everyone’s safety. If you’re applying for a role that involves working with children and/or vulnerable adults, you will be required to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
Faith-Based Roles
As a Christian organisation, some roles within LDF require candidates to be practising Christians. These positions are identified as having a Genuine Occupational Requirement (GOR) under the Equality Act 2010, meaning that being a practising Christian is essential to fulfilling the responsibilities of the role. This requirement is in place to uphold the Christian ethos and mission of the Diocese of London. If a role has this requirement, it will be clearly stated in the job description.
