enei strikes strategic deal with Diversityjobs

Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion (enei) today announced that it has formed a strategic partnership with DiversityJobs.co.uk, the largest diversity recruitment website in the UK. This deal enables the two organisations - both fully committed to promoting equality and inclusion in the workplace - to provide members with a holistic set of services covering advice, guidance, training and recruitment to increase access opportunities for all.

Diversityjobs.co.uk is the UK's largest diversity and inclusion job board, engaging with communities covering the nine protected characteristics, as defined by the Equality Act 2010, through 20 million+ job searches per month. Unlike any other job board, Diversity Jobs has developed 'Diversity Talks' technology, creating a talking toolbar for corporate websites that engages with the 22% of the population that require online reading assistance.

Dan Robertson, diversity & inclusion director, enei, commented: "Both enei and DiversityJobs.co.uk recognise that creating a diverse workplace - by employing individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, ages and life experiences - can make an organisation more competitive and a more interesting place to work. This is even more important in the current economic climate. With this partnership, enei and Diversity Jobs can help businesses make the most of the employee lifecycle."

Morgan Lobb, managing director at DiversityJobs.co.uk, said: "Every day we help job seekers and employers who want to work within an inclusive and positive workplace, and by doing this, we help organisations address the internal balance of staff. Our relationship with enei will now provide added value to those contacts."
