You will work collaboratively with providers, internal teams and strategic partners such as Ofsted and the NHS to ensure services are safe, effective and continuously improving.

We seek the best talent from the widest pool of people as diversity and inclusion is the key to our success. Reading Borough Council is a Disability Confident Employer and is committed to the recruitment and continued employment of people with disabilities.

About the role

You’ll be central to driving quality assurance and improvement across children’s services.

Your responsibilities will include:

Supporting the development of robust quality assurance systems across commissioned and in-house services

Monitoring and responding to quality concerns, ensuring timely improvements are implemented

Building strong partnerships with providers, colleagues and external agencies

Knowledge of regulatory frameworks and standards (including Ofsted)

Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal

The ability to build strong relationships and work collaboratively with partners

Confidence to challenge constructively and influence change

Strong organisational skills and the ability to work on your own initiative

You’ll be part of a team that relies on each individual to play their part to the best of their ability. As well as the colleagues that you work closely with every day, you’ll also be part of Team Reading, playing your personal part in making Reading a successful and vibrant place.

Our vision is to ensure that Reading realises its potential as a great place to live, work and play, and that everyone shares the benefits of this success. Our values and behaviours guide how we will achieve this:

Work Together as one team - work collaboratively, with each other and with our partners, and demonstrate the Team Reading values in everything we do

Drive Efficiency - show initiative, be adaptable to change and put forward ideas to help improve delivery and efficiency. Take responsibility for our own learning and development and for reaching our potential

Be Ambitious - be demanding of our own performance – striving to be even better – and be prepared to engage with and challenge leaders in a constructive and positive way

Make a Difference to Reading - maintain the highest levels of customer service and be flexible and willing to provide the services needed at the time they are needed

Our offer

We offer a supportive environment to grow and develop your career with the opportunity to put your ideas across. Innovation and ambition is strongly encouraged, and you’ll get a great feel for that working in our friendly and collaborative environment.

A competitive salary alongside a range of benefits including:

Generous holiday entitlement - 25 days holiday each year plus bank holidays - rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service and 33 days after 10 years' service, with the option to buy additional leave

A wide range of flexible working opportunities
