About Company

Equal Opportunities

Here at The King's Trust, we're committed to Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion. We want to be an organization that's representative of the communities we serve, which is why we strive for diversity of age, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, race, religion, and sex. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone, from any background, can be themselves and do the best work of their lives.

We are looking for people who can bring different perspectives and experiences and especially welcome applications from those who are underrepresented in our organization and sector, such as candidates from Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic backgrounds.

Safeguarding

The King's Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. As part of this commitment, we undertake basic disclosure checks in accordance with the Codes of Practice for all roles within the Trust, and for our roles working directly with young people, at an enhanced level. Having a criminal record will not automatically exclude applicants.

Note For Recruitment Agencies

We prefer to hire people directly, but we do have a preferred supplier list for when we need a helping hand. We'll be in touch directly if we need you!
