Diversity

GCHQ values diversity. We recognise that society is changing and that each individual brings unique talents and abilities into the workplace.

We have developed policies and practices to help create and support a more diverse workforce - these include signing up to the Commission for Racial Equality's Leadership Challenge and being awarded a Gold Star in the Opportunity Now bench marking exercise. We take part in positive action schemes such as the Civil Service Summer Development Programme and support organisations such as the Windsor Fellowship.

We adhere to the Department of Employment's Disability Two Ticks standard which is awarded to diversity friendly employers. We are happy to make reasonable adjustments to assist those with disabilities in the workplace and provide specialist assistance for those with hidden disabilities such as dyslexia and dyspraxia.

We welcome applications from all sections of society.
