We’re transforming the way we support our communities to get the best outcomes possible for each and every person we work with. Our Strategy and Innovation Team sits at the heart of our adult social care change programmes, with specialist focus on project management, workforce development and strategy.
CQC assurance for local authorities was reintroduced in 2023. Our Assurance Lead will work alongside a wide range of operational and commissioning colleagues, including our Deputy Director of Adult Social Care, Principal Social Worker, Principal Occupational Therapist, Co-production Team and Commissioning Leads. The Assurance Lead role will:
* Be the subject-matter expert on CQC Assurance for local authorities, ensuring we have a thorough understanding of the emerging approach taken by our regulator, briefing colleagues about developments in workshops and webinars.
* Lead the ongoing development of improvement plans, liaising with colleagues to monitor progress, refreshing our approach as required.
* Utilise excellent report writing skills to update our Self Assessment narrative and provide regular written updates to senior leaders, escalating issues as needed.
* Liaise with colleagues across the service to develop our evidence library, acting as a “critical friend” and quality assuring documentation provided.
* Ensure the voice of people we support is heard and brought to the fore, as an essential part of quality assurance and improvement.
Candidates with transferrable skills and experience are warmly encouraged to apply. We are committed to supporting ongoing professional training and development, so that you can grow and progress your career with us.
We continue to be a financially stable local authority and our investment in Adult Services means we have some ambitious plans to transform and improve the way we do things; it’s a really exciting time to join us!
