Diversity and inclusion

ONR wants to employ a workforce that reflects the diversity of society in which we seek to protect people from harm. Our colleagues are from all walks of life with varied personal experiences and career journeys into ONR including:

We offer a diverse range of careers with offices across Bootle, Cheltenham, and central London. We want the best people for our roles. As an inclusive employer we value individuals’ contributions, regardless of their age, gender, race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, social background, religion, or belief. Our values ‘supportive, open-minded, fair and accountable’ are central to this.

Our people processes and policies have been independently reviewed, assessed and accredited through several well-respected diversity and inclusion accreditation frameworks, including:

Examples of our commitment in action include:

  • Our guaranteed interview scheme for candidates with a disability who meet the essential criteria for a role.
  • Making reasonable adjustments and adaptations to ensure the recruitment process is inclusive and barrier-free. For example, providing job descriptions in alternative formats, and providing communication support and accessible venues. If you would like to discuss how we can support you, please email ONR.Human-Resources@onr.gov.uk
  • ‘Name-anonymised’ recruitment, which supports diversity in the workforce by helping to create a more level playing field in the assessment process. 

We appreciate that if you’re thinking about joining us you may be interested in understanding how we support you.
