Position
As a new role for the business, the Quality & Compliance Manager will take the lead in setting high-standards across the group, maintaining a keen focus on internal standards through robust quality auditing to gather accurate quality assurance information - using this management information to "tell a story" through data, presented to a variety of audiences and making recommendations around improvements to support individuals, teams and the wider business to achieve better quality outcomes.
Working closely with the Senior Leadership team, you will champion best-practice and innovative ways of working across relevant teams with a particular focus on industry standards and internal processes, as well as taking ownership of the development and ongoing support of performance related systems. Alongside this, you will maintain overall responsibility for our ISO accreditation management and the regular support of our IMS (SharePoint) and other relevant systems, to include but not limited to; HandsHQ, MyCompliance, PeopleSafe and Sage200.
