We are working to ensure that people can access opportunities which support them to success and help to alleviate the impact of disadvantage and inequity which might otherwise negatively impact on their potential.

This role will support teams across the institution to understand and engage in the agenda to meet our strategic aims and regulatory requirements as defined within the APP.
