British Council Equal Opportunity and Diversity Statement

The British Council is committed to a policy of equal opportunity and is keen to reflect the diversity of UK society at every level within the organisation. We welcome applications from all sections of the community. In line with the British Council's Safeguarding Global Policy Statement, any appointment is contingent on thorough checks. In the UK, and in other countries where appropriate systems exist, these include criminal records checks.

Policies for consultants

Consultants contracting with the British Council are required to familiarise themselves with and adhere to British Council policies, including the standards, behaviours and principles. You can also find here the Policies for consultants and forms that may need to be completed and returned to the British Council.
