You'll lead on quality assurance activities including audits, service reviews, compliance monitoring and performance reporting, ensuring that organisational standards, governance requirements and regulatory expectations are consistently met.

About you

You will be a qualified healthcare practitioner with experience in quality, governance, performance, compliance or assurance environments. You will bring a strong understanding of governance frameworks, risk management, audit processes and continuous improvement, and be confident using performance and quality data to identify trends, evaluate risks and support informed decision-making.

You will have experience undertaking audits, reviews and quality assurance activities, and will be comfortable working with senior leaders to provide support, professional advice and constructive challenge.
