Quality and Compliance Manager
Quality and Compliance Manager - East Midlands, with regional travel In a year when the UK has been dissecting standards across every public-facing institution, from government ethics inquiries to national infrastructure performance, there’s a renewed spotlight on what genuine accountability looks like. This role belongs to someone who doesn’t wait for a regulator, a headline, or a whistle-blower to reveal gaps. You find them early. You fix them properly. And you treat quality not as a reaction to scrutiny, but as a daily act of integrity. You already operate at a senior level in health or social care quality. You’ve stood in rooms where judgement is passed, where evidence matters, and where the difference between “almost compliant” and “truly safe” is a line you never blur. Your experience across multiple services means you understand the complexity of varied cultures, risk profiles and leadership styles. You know when to mentor, when to challenge, and when to insist—politely but immovably. And because you’ve invested years, not months, in your past roles, your CV shows something this organisation values deeply: commitment. If your CV reads like a tasting menu of short stays, this won’t be your home. This position demands someone whose impact has been proven over time, not tested in passing. This is a newly created position within a growing care group. Quietly successful, multi-award winning, and expanding with intention rather than haste. The senior team is stable, trusted, and unusually low-turnover by sector standards. This isn’t a business that churns people; it grows them. You’ll be the person who provides the organisation’s clearest view of its own quality: Not by sitting above the homes, but by being present around them—digitally, physically, and culturally. You’ll work with managers who want support, not avoidance. With operations leaders who act when you speak, not when you remind. And with an executive team that understands the value of an experienced quality professional who can tell them what they must know, not what they want to hear. You’ll shape the systems, the thinking, the culture. You’ll influence outcomes long before inspections arrive. And when needed, you’ll step into the registered space with confidence, because you’re already operating at that level. The remuneration recognises the seniority, typically falling in the mid-£50k range, with flexibility for an exceptional career history. This role is intentionally selective. If the statements below describe you, your experience will be taken seriously: Minimum five years of quality or compliance in social or health care. At least one year in a leadership or managerial capacity. Clear experience working across multiple services or sites. A history of long, stable tenures, not rapid moves. Strong grounding in CQC frameworks, regulatory engagement and improvement journeys. Confident communicator with the authority to influence and the humility to listen. Based in or near the East Midlands, with the willingness to travel regionally. If that’s you, then this is a role that will recognise the depth of what you’ve already achieved and the even greater impact you’re capable of making. If it isn’t—if your experience isn’t rooted in this world, or your tenure history is fragmented—then it’s unlikely to move forward here. Apply in confidence with a CV (even if it is not up to date) or call Tim, the Principal Consultant working closely with this employer. ....Read more...
