Equal Opportunities Statement

We’re building an organisation that fully reflects our city, and brings different communities together. Here’s how we’re doing it.  

We champion equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging throughout our organisation, our activities, and in the artists and music genres we present. 

Our team is a dynamic group of people from all walks of life, united in our passion for music. We’re committed to creating an environment where everyone feels welcome, respected and able to thrive.   

As part of this commitment, we warmly welcome applicants with the skills and experience that help us to widen our perspectives and better serve the needs of the Liverpool City Region and our communities.  

We've been awarded Gold on the Attitude is Everything’s Live Events Access Charter, in recognition of our work to make our organisation more accessible for disabled audiences, staff and artists. We’re also a strategic partner of PiPA who work to improve working conditions for parents and carers in the performing arts. 

We continue to build representation in the music industry through our partnership with Black Lives in Music, including their 10 Point Plan for Inclusive Recruitment. 

We are proud to work with local partners, including Liverpool City Region's Race Equality Hub, Department of Work and Pensions, Liverpool City Council, Everton in the Community, Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, Transforming Lives Company and Strawberry Fields. Our long-term commitment to paying the Real Living Wage or above for all staff reflects our dedication to fairness and equity. 

We particularly encourage applications from disabled people, people from the global majority, and people from working-class communities, as these groups are underrepresented in the creative industries.
