Develop and maintain strong partnerships with local authorities, health, education, and voluntary sector organisations.
Monitor service quality, performance indicators, and compliance with legislation, regulations, and national standards.
Lead service improvement initiatives informed by feedback, data analysis, and emerging best practice.
Contribute to strategic planning and the ongoing development of Regional Adoption Agency services.

Experience of managing teams within a social care environment.
Sound knowledge of adoption legislation, regulations, and statutory guidance.
