Diversity of skills

The University of Exeter believes that the best teams are composed of a variety of experiences, and we are therefore passionate about recruiting people from a diversity of backgrounds. We are a passionately LGBT+ friendly service. 

Our women in Higher Education work extends the principles of the Athena SWAN Charter and the Gender Equality Charter Mark to all roles in the University. At Exeter we are committed to bringing the best development experience to women at all stages of their careers as well as being passionate about promoting careers for women in science. That is why we have invested in a range of initiatives, online resources, networking, training and mentoring opportunities to encourage women to reach their full potential.  

We are keen to support applicants in whichever way we can and welcome applications from those with disabilities. If you have questions about accessibility requirements please get in touch with the named recruitment lead on any application.
