Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation is an equal opportunities employer and positively encourages applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.
Alongside Middlesbrough Football Club, we are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion as highlighted by our RiversideBySide initiative. The Foundation is a place where inclusion is a core value and where everyone can be themselves in an environment where they feel safe and included, including being a Disability Confident Leader.
Safeguarding
Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation and Middlesbrough Football Club are fully committed to the safeguarding and welfare of children, young people, young players, and Adults at Risk.
Promoting safeguarding and welfare of participants and staff is everyone’s responsibility and staff and volunteers are expected to share this commitment.
As part of the Foundation’s commitment to safeguarding, any successful applicant, who will be working in regulated activity, will be required to undergo a DBS (Disclosure Barring Service) check or an enhanced DBS check. The successful applicant will not be able to start working for the Foundation until the DBS check has been completed.
The Foundation will also seek the successful candidate's consent for obtaining two written references and to ask for documentary proof of qualifications and right to work in the UK. Any offer of employment will be conditional on these being satisfactory.
Once in post, all new staff will receive a comprehensive safeguarding induction from our Designated Safeguarding Officer, as well as ongoing safeguarding training
