Strong understanding of advocacy principles and relevant legislation (IMCA, IMHA, DOLS, RPR, Care Act, NHS Complaints)
At least 1 year’s experience supervising a statutory advocacy service
Excellent communication, organisational and leadership skills
Confidence managing risk, delivering supervision, and supporting a dispersed team
Ability to build relationships across sectors
