About Starlight

Starlight is the UK’s leading children’s healthcare charity focused on the power of play. We support children to experience moments of joy and resilience through play during hospital stays, treatment and recovery. Play helps children cope, reduces trauma and anxiety, and improves engagement with healthcare.

Despite its impact, play is often overlooked in healthcare settings. Our work ensures that every child’s right to play is protected and prioritised – because play isn’t just fun, it’s fundamental.

Our Culture

We believe that our success depends upon focusing on our purpose and business results. We take individual and collective responsibility for a culture where everyone can belong, feel safe and thrive. Our values are the agreed standards that govern our behaviour and are central to our decision-making and the choices that we make. Our colleague development programme focuses on individual awareness of our own values, strengths, and preferences –what makes us who we are – to help all colleagues think for themselves, manage their environment, and make appropriate, balanced decisions for themselves, others and Starlight. We believe that our strength is in our differences and constantly strive towards an authentic workplace culture with equity, diversity, and inclusion as central principles.

SOS Children’s Villages UK is part of a global federation, which exists to ensure that each child and young person grows up with the healthy relationships they need to become their strongest selves. We are the world’s largest non-governmental organisation focused on supporting children and young people who don’t have, or who are at risk of losing, parental care.

About Us

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm.  When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave.  We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

About the role

As Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Partner, you will play a central role in building the DEI capacity and capability of SCUK. You will collaborate with colleagues at all levels to embed DEI in our culture, ways of working, and systems – helping to create a more inclusive, agile, and human-centric organisation. You'll work closely with teams across Organisational Effectiveness, senior leaders, staff networks, and multidisciplinary project teams, with a strong emphasis on learning, iteration, and impact.

In this role, you will: 

• Design and deliver impactful DEI initiatives and interventions aligned to organisational priorities, measuring outcomes to ensure continuous improvement.

• Coach and support leaders and teams in inclusive leadership, mindset shifts and behavioural change, enabling transformation through reflection and accountability.

• Facilitate learning spaces and communities of practice to strengthen DEI knowledge, connection and shared understanding across the organisation.

• Collaborate with colleagues to embed DEI into organisational policies, leadership programmes, mandatory training, and team development efforts.

• Use qualitative and quantitative data and insights to identify DEI challenges and opportunities, shape actions and track progress.

• Contribute to broader organisational change initiatives, supporting agile cross-functional teams to integrate DEI approaches into their work.

About you

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Knowledge of intersectional systemic oppression and its manifestation in organisational systems, culture and behaviours.

• Strong communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to translate complex DEI concepts into accessible insights and actions.

• Proven ability to work in ambiguity and emergence, with an adaptive, reflective and learning-oriented approach.

• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.

What we offer you:

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.

• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.
