Support adherence to relevant legislation, regulatory standards, and internal governance processes
Respond to concerns, complaints, or incidents in line with policy, escalating appropriately to the Client Care Manager where required
Play a key support role to the Leadership Team with Head office audits and CQC inspections.
Ensure learning from feedback, complaints, and incidents is shared and embedded into continuous improvement.

Collaboration, Systems & Professional Practice (Well-Led)

Work in close partnership with care coordinators, the carer experience team, recruitment and leadership
Ensure accurate, timely, and confidential record-keeping in line with data protection requirements
