Oxford City Council continues to value diversity in its’ ambition to develop a World Class City for everyone, as the delivery of high
quality public services needs the recruitment and development of the most talented people from across all communities both
within Oxford and externally. We welcome applications from people with disabilities, people from ethnic minority groups, and
people from other under-represented groups within the Council workforce. Disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria
are guaranteed an interview as the Council has achieved accreditation under the Two Ticks symbol (Jobcentre Plus positive about
disabled people)
An area of outstanding natural beauty, with a population of 134,250 there is evidence
suggesting that there were settlements in what is now Oxford City dating back at least 4000
y ars showing that we live in a region that was attractive to and viable to sustain a growing
popula ion. At the forefront of education and culture our City has always led the way
With such a rich and diverse culture, and a community made up of people from different
races, with differing backgrounds, beliefs and experiences. This cultural diversity is one of the
things that makes Oxford such a great place to live and work.
Employing over 1400 people who all stem from a diverse background, the City Council has
total commitment to equality of opportunity for all, and to respect the needs of our diverse
communities in s rvice delivery, e ployment and com unity participation.
We recognise and value the diversity within our City and the contribution our citizen's make
to the well-being and prosperity of Oxford. We are committed to taking positive action to
promote “Valuing Diversity”.

policies designed to assimilate those groups into an existing culture. Valuing Diversity looks at

Traditional Equal Opportunities
tend to focus on groups and the implementation of specific
policies designed to assimilate those groups into an existing culture. Valuing Diversity looks at
the differences we all have and uses those differences to create a richer and more dynamic

make-up of an organisation so it is more representative of the wider community it serves.
