• Supporting external quality visits, including preparation, coordination and follow-up actions.
• Carrying out quality activities such as deep dives, learning walks and observations, then writing up findings and actions clearly.
• Advising managers on best practice and compliance in teaching, assessment and training delivery.
• Training staff on quality assurance expectations and good practice.

• Experience in a quality or compliance role within a teaching or training environment
• Strong working knowledge of awarding body and external quality requirements, and how to evidence compliance
• Highly organised and methodical, able to manage several workstreams at once
• Confident producing reports and turning findings into clear, actionable next steps
• Able to influence managers and staff across departments without direct line management

Desirable (but not essential):
