We operate an Equal Opportunities Recruitment Policy and welcome applications from all sections of the community in Welsh or English. However, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic, disabled, and transgender individuals are under-represented within the Arts Council’s workforce and as such we would particularly encourage applications from candidates from these under-represented groups.

Mentoring or training will be provided to an appointed person from an under-represented group during the induction period, if required.
