About the Equality Trust

The Equality Trust draws on the increasing evidence that excessive levels of economic inequality are damaging to the life-chances and mental and physical health of individuals, to social cohesion and to the performance of organisations and the economy. The UK has one of the highest levels of inequality in the developed world, and these problems affect people at all income levels, not just the poorest.

The Equality Trust seeks to secure changes in policy and practice that reduce levels of economic equality. We do this by: working with relevant policymakers and other decision-makers; providing information and analysis on the scale, impact and drivers of economic inequality; promoting discussion of the links between inequality and key issues in UK public discourse; and supporting individuals and groups who work to reduce excessive inequality.

The Equality Trust also seeks to positively engage with a wide range of audiences, developing positions and proposals which have a positive impact on businesses and the economy as well as individuals and society.

Role summary

This is a new role, which involves ensuring that finance and administration systems are adequate to the needs of the organisation, as well as carrying out finance and administration duties on a day to day level.

The Equality Trust is a small organisation (5 full-time staff ) so this role is an opportunity to have a wide responsibility for aspects of our work which are crucial to our functioning.

This role is a part time position (22.5 hrs per week, equivalent to 3 days per week. Hours are flexible).
