Are you interested in chairing the Race Equality Partnership for Sheffield?

We are looking for an independent chair of the Race Equality Partnership for Sheffield. This is an exciting opportunity to play a pivotal role in delivering upon the legacy of the Sheffield Race Equality Commission, which provided an independent strategic assessment of the nature, extent, causes and impacts of racism and race inequality within the city. 

 The Race Equality Partnership for Sheffield will launch in February 2024 and will be an active, collaborative network of people and organisations working towards a shared aim to make Sheffield an anti-racist city, primarily by monitoring the implementation of the Commission’s recommendations. 

 The Chair will play a vital role in the success of the Race Equality Partnership and will be accountable for the delivery of its objectives and for maintaining effective engagement with key stakeholders. They will embody the principles of the Partnership - for and led by Sheffield people; real accountability and action; independence, openness, and transparency; working together and challenging each other; communicate, celebrate, and educate.
