Key to success in these roles will be your ability to understand and interpret complex regulatory and legal frameworks, regardless of whether or not you have previous experience working in a regulator, in order to reach fair, evidence-based judgements on complex issues. You will be equally adept at quickly adapting to working within higher education and able to learn and understand the key issues and challenges facing the sector. You will be people focused, committed to our mission of driving positive outcomes for students, and able to work at pace within complex and ambiguous environments.
Regardless of the focus of your portfolio, you will be an experienced leader of people and able to demonstrate an ability to motivate, develop and deliver exceptional results through people across an organisation. You will understand the role and value of a regulator and, regardless of your professional background, show an understanding of how effective regulation works in practice.
How we do things is as important to us as what we do, and your approach will be grounded in our strategic attitudes - being ambitious, collaborative, vigilant, and vocal.
We are interested in hearing from candidates with experience of working in relevant roles in the higher education sector, as well as those who have experience of other regulators or regulated environments. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with previous experience in regulatory investigations and in assessing quality and standards within higher education.
