I hope that someone can help with just providing a second opinion on the following matter that is arising in our workplace.
Our longest serving SLT member has decided they want to retire at the end of summer 2022, and we are looking to prepare the recruitment process that will source her replacements, as the expansion of our service over the last few years mean we want to split the role out into two senior positions.
With her forthcoming departure this will mean that the remaining SLT will only consist of white males, and we all feel that having a more diverse SLT group would be beneficial to the organisation. Whilst I understand that there is scope to undertake positive action within recruitment, I would appreciate if anyone can provide some experience or knowledge on how this can be implemented successfully within a recruitment campaign.
If anyone can provide any advice, experience, or knowledge of best practice I would be very grateful.
