Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Executive

We’re on a mission to provide equitable access to economic opportunity, for everyone.

We close critical skill gaps in the workforce through a new kind of apprenticeship that combines work and learning. We begin by recognizing high-potential individuals both inside and outside of a company's current workforce and then we create applied, guided and equitable learning programs, with measurable impact. Because we believe the world needs a better way to match its potential.

We work with over 1,000 leading companies including the likes of Microsoft, Citi and Just Eat to help solve their business-critical problems, and we’ve trained over 12,000 professional apprentices in the tech and data skills of the future. This is made possible by our global team who are driven to achieve a mission that matters, together.

Join Multiverse and help us set a new course for work.

• Work closely with the people partnering and talent teams to ensure that DEI is embedded in every single employee and candidate touchpoint

• Create content and communications about our DEI strategy to engage employees and candidates with our work

• Thought leader: we’re looking for someone who sees DEI as a product and who innovates constantly to improve employee outcomes
