Careers at Bristol SU
Bristol SU strives to have an inclusive culture and an environment for all, underpinned by respect and compassion, where everyone feels welcomed, included, supported, valued and safe. Bristol SU recognises that candidates from some backgrounds/ identities may face additional barriers throughout their careers and when applying for new roles across the sector. We are committed to taking positive action to expand the diversity of our staff team by offering two guaranteed interview schemes – a scheme for people of colour and a scheme for disabled people.
Guaranteed Interview Scheme for People of Colour
We recognise that candidates that are people of colour may face additional barriers throughout their careers and when applying for new roles across the sector. We are committed to taking positive action to expand the diversity of our staff team by offering a guaranteed interview scheme for people of colour.
If you meet the minimum criteria for a role (at least 80% of the 'essential' criteria in the person specification) and are a person of colour, you'll be guaranteed an interview.
It is important to note that this scheme guarantees an interview for applicants that are a person of colour who meet the minimum criteria and tell us that they'd like to be considered under the scheme. The selection decision at interview will be based on the most suitable candidate, regardless of any protected characteristic.
Guaranteed Interview Scheme for Disabled People
Bristol SU is proud to be accredited as a Level 1 Disability Confident Employer making a commitment to the recruitment, development and retention of disabled staff. We recognise that disabled candidates may face additional barriers throughout their careers and when applying for new roles across the sector, and we are committed to taking positive action to expand the diversity of our staff team. As part of this we have introduced a second Guaranteed Interview Scheme to our recruitment process, which guarantees the offer of an interview to disabled applicants who fully meet the essential criteria of a role.
If you meet the minimum criteria for a role (at least 80% of the 'essential' criteria in the person specification) and are a disabled person, you'll be guaranteed an interview.
It is important to note that this scheme guarantees an interview for disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria and tell us that they'd like to be considered under the scheme. The selection decision at interview will be based on the most suitable candidate, regardless of any protected characteristic.
