Championing inclusion, empowering talent, and creating new opportunities for all

In the rapidly evolving world of digital, data, and technology, the true measure of progress is not just innovation, but inclusion. At Registers of Scotland (RoS), we believe the future of work is accessible, equitable, and welcoming to all. Our registers support Scotland’s billion-pound land and property market. We are a world-leading pioneer in land and property registration and hold the answer to the question, “Who owns Scotland?”.

Disability Confident: Living the values

RoS’ commitment to being a Disability Confident employer is more than a badge. We value our colleagues for who they are and what they can contribute. We prioritise inclusion because it’s the right thing to do. In RoS, you are safe to be your authentic self, and your voice will be heard and respected. Our supportive environment allows people to thrive. Our colleagues have diverse lived experiences, backgrounds, and identities. This makes us stronger, more innovative, and better decision-makers. We know that, together, we’re more welcoming and accessible to colleagues and customers.

Our recruitment process is accessible. This means:

  • Application forms and information are available in multiple formats
  • Questions are provided in advance shortly before the interview
  • We offer alternative assessment methods to suit different needs
  • Our digital platforms meet or exceed accessibility standards
  • Dedicated support and reasonable adjustments are available at every stage
  • We also offer assessment feedback to build confidence and skills for the future.

You can also use our employee passport. This is a voluntary tool designed to support you and your manager in discussing what you need to have a better day at work. This is a document you own and that can travel with you as you move around the business. It’ll help you share information in a way that works for you and identify adjustments that may support you.

“I love that we listen to colleagues with protected characteristics to understand their needs and get their input on key developments. It’s so important to provide a safe space for colleagues to raise any matters that are affecting them” Laura McGibbon, Head of Leadership, Culture & Inclusion.
