Person specification
With the ability to use analytical information and risk-based methodology to inform decision-making, you’ll ideally have leadership background within health services, with knowledge and skills in child safeguarding, children with special educational needs and disabilities, looked after children and the multi-agency landscape of children’s services. You will have experience of managing challenging scenarios and difficult conversations. Computer literate and an excellent communicator, you’re confident at articulating coherent rationales for action based on robust evidence.
You’ll come from a professional health or social care background where you have gained a thorough understanding of the needs of people who use these services.
We require our inspectors to be highly autonomous and have the motivation and drive to apply initiative and discipline to your work. You will work as part of a geographically dispersed homebased team and as such we are looking for people who are self-driven and have the energy to manage the dynamic of life in a non-office-based environment. This post is for a national programme and the ability to travel regularly and be accommodated away from home on a regular basis will be required.
Your health and wellbeing are important to us and are supported through generous annual leave (starting at 27 days and rising with service to 32.5 days, plus 8 Bank Holidays), a cycle to work scheme, discounted gym vouchers and access to a free employee assistance service 24 hours a day. We also understand the importance of financial health and offer membership of the NHS pension scheme, contributing about 14% of basic salary. You will also be able to access discounts to supermarkets, high street stores, electronics, fleet cars, plus we also have an internal reward scheme which could see you earn yourself a voucher or two! All of our Homeworkers are also kitted out with everything they need to comfortably work from home.
We want to support you to succeed and be your very best, with opportunities for training and development along with the support of experienced managers and mentors.
We want to make working for CQC a great experience for everyone, and to role model a diverse and representative culture. To support an inclusive environment where colleagues feel empowered to bring their whole self to work, we support a variety of staff networks, including the Race Equality Network, LGBT+ Equality Network, Carers Equality Network, Disability Equality Network and Gender Equality network.
