We have a new exciting opportunity for an additional Quality Improvement and Regulation Manager within the Regulation and Quality Improvement Team at Barchester Healthcare.
About the Role
Quality Improvement and Regulation Managers support the Lead Quality Improvement and Regulation Managers, the Director of Nursing and Deputy Director of Regulation and Quality Improvement to achieve Barchester's business objectives in attaining regulatory compliance, and driving continuous quality improvements throughout the business.
The role is ideally suited to candidates who have previous experience in a quality improvement or a health and social care regulatory role and is advertised as a full-time post.
The role is home-based with regular travel to our services. Therefore, you must possess a full UK driving license, have access to a car, and be prepared to travel. There is a requirement for some overnight stays. The vacancy is for someone situated in the south of England, covering areas from Southampton to Guildford; however, this area is not exclusive, and some additional travel may be required across the wider south division.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
