Abstract

Inclusion matters to us. We're proud to be an equal opportunity employer who celebrates diversity, and we're committed to creating an enabling and supportive environment for our people.

There's lots we're doing across policy and process, and in curating a truly inclusive culture - from staff-led networks to wellbeing initiatives and more - but don't just take our word for it. In this video, Leanne (one of our fantastic Marketing Executives) talks us through the help and support she’s received from the IET since disclosing her Multiple Sclerosis and shares tips and advice for anyone thinking about doing the same.

What if you could be you?

Working with us is more than just a career move; it's an opportunity to contribute to something truly meaningful and impactful. Our work is exciting and challenging, connecting the people who solve the problems that matter; all working together to engineer a better world. 

Making our world a better place starts with creating a better place for our people. Diversity and inclusion are in our DNA, and we pride ourselves on creating welcoming environments where you can thrive. Learning and development is a huge part of who we are, and we’re committed to providing plenty of opportunities so you can grow – professionally and personally – in ways you never thought possible.

At the IET, no two days are ever the same. You’ll be playing your part in the incredible outcomes of our varied and one-of-a-kind projects, while collaborating with colleagues and organisations who share our vision and ambition. 

We're motivated by seeing the tangible results of what we do and how it changes our society in positive ways, and so we want people who are excited to make a difference and share our enthusiasm for the opportunities we provide.
