+We'd really encourage you to apply!
+
+Our team has a very motivated group of people that work on things such as:
+- inputting to institute-wide policies (e.g. trans and non-binary inclusion)
+- doing analysis of diversity data, like for our [Gender Pay Gap Report](https://www.turing.ac.uk/sites/default/files/2023-03/2023.03.30_gender_pay_gap_report.pdf)
+- making job ads more inclusive (not closing applications early, publishing salary bands, using clear language)
+- being ambassadors for REG and the Turing at events like the [Hopper Colloquium](https://www.ucl.ac.uk/computer-science/about/equity-diversity-and-inclusion/gender-equality-athena-swan/london-hopper-colloquium) and the [BCSWomen Lovelace event](https://bcswomenlovelace.bcs.org/)
+- Attending network groups – a place to find community, organise events, and work on issues specific to that network. They exist for
+    - LGBTQIA+
+    - Race equality
+    - Gender equality
+    - Disability and wellbeing
+- and much more!
