About the team
The Specialist Casework and Complex Cases Team (SCCT) manages some of the most complex, sensitive, and high-profile fitness to practise cases within the organisation. These cases often involve significant stakeholder interest, Public Inquiries, and matters that attract national media attention. The team works closely with colleagues across the organisation, including media and executive functions, to ensure cases are managed proportionately, fairly, and with a person-centred approach.
As part of an evolving structure, this newly created role will support a dedicated maternity workstream, helping to ensure that complex maternity-related cases are managed effectively while maintaining the highest standards of public protection, customer care, and operational excellence.
About the role
As Specialist Maternity Manager, you will provide operational leadership and oversight of complex and sensitive fitness to practise cases. You will work collaboratively with senior colleagues, lawyers, and stakeholders to ensure cases progress efficiently, risks are managed appropriately, and service standards are consistently met.
