Fun Palaces DEI and Anti-racism Consultant – Applications Now Open

Job title: Fun Palaces DEI and Anti-Racism Consultant
Pay scale: This position is currently freelance with a daily rate of £200 per day (expected to increase from 1st April 2026). 
Contract: Fixed Term, freelance 2 years with potential to extend. 
Hours: This is a part time role, one day per month, which can be worked flexibly (you may choose to work a couple of hours a week). There will be the potential for additional days work over the course of the two years, which will be discussed and agreed as needed. 

Do you believe that everyone is creative? 
And that everyone (and every community) has a right to have their cultural life celebrated and respected?
Do you want a flexible, varied, inspiring job that you can make your own? 
Do you want to help make culture fairer and more equitable for everyone?
Do you care about people, their stories, their cultures, their passions, their issues? 

If your answer to all these questions is yes – you are probably the person we need! 

Fun Palaces is a campaign to make the cultural sector fairer, more inclusive, richer and more fun. We do this through year round campaigning and an annual Weekend of Celebration. We strive to celebrate everyone’s cultural life, everyone’s voice, everyone’s uniqueness. So, we take care of each other at work, develop our roles around the people in them, and respect people’s lives beyond the workplace. 

We are very aware of the structural disadvantages faced by marginalised communities across the sector. If you are someone who experiences racism, sexism, ableism, classism, homophobia or transphobia, then we actively want to hear from you.

Fun Palaces is funded by The National Lottery Community Fund, and we are grateful to lottery players for their support.

Location: You will from time to time be expected to meet at our Deptford office, then you can work wherever you like apart from that. As Fun Palaces is a national (and international) campaign, travel across the UK is a part of the job, with the occasional overnight stay (with costs covered). We acknowledge that in person attendance and travel may act as a barrier to this role for some people, so are open to discussions around this role being remote. 

Deadline for applications: Friday 7th November (by midnight)
All candidates contacted by: Wednesday 12th November
