This role will be based on the university campus with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner.  We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

 Are you interested in supporting efforts to increase Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) across the University of Leeds Clinical Psychology training programme? Do you take a flexible approach to your work and thrive on working in a busy team?

Leeds has a longstanding and highly regarded doctoral training programme in Clinical Psychology (DClinPsy). We are a close knit, friendly and supportive team, with excellent links with clinical psychology colleagues in West Yorkshire, and academic colleagues in the Institute for Health Sciences. 

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) in clinical psychology training is a national and local priority, and this post is based in the new Inclusion team on the programme. 

We are looking for an EDI Project officer to work as part of our Inclusion Team. As part of this role, you would support a range of EDI related projects and activities. This includes our regional mentoring scheme for aspiring Clinical Psychologists from the Global Majority, as well as a number of research and training activities. 

We are looking for an enthusiastic team player with excellent communication skills who can demonstrate a high level of accuracy and attention to detail to provide project support for our EDI initiatives.

We welcome and encourage applications from all candidates. For this role we would particularly welcome applications from Global Majority candidates as this group is underrepresented in the Profession and within our course team. The law permits positive action in recruitment under section 159 of the Equality Act 2010, however candidates will always be selected based on merit and ability.
