We need you to be an experienced practitioner with at least 5 years post-qualification experience and a full understanding of and experience working within a Safeguarding and Quality Assurance Unit.
You will be experienced in chairing meetings and able to handle complex and competing demands to ensure the best outcomes possible for children and young people.

We strive to provide a supportive and dynamic work environment for our employees with a strong focus on support, training, development, and health and wellbeing.
