About the Group:

We are part of National Fostering Group - the UK's largest independent fostering family.

Our highly skilled and dedicated fostering community supports Local Authorities by providing short or long-term foster placements for thousands of vulnerable children and teenagers throughout the UK. With 100% of our regional fostering agencies officially recognised by Ofsted, Welsh and Scottish regulators as either ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’, it is perhaps not surprising that more people choose to foster with our fostering agencies than any other fostering provider in the UK.



About the Role:

This is an exciting new role for the Group and will support the administration and implementation of quality assurance processes to ensure that the National Fostering Group meet regulatory standards and operate best practices.

The Senior Quality Assurance Administrator will assist with the coordination, documentation and administration of quality assurance initiatives to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency and safety of our operations.

The ideal candidate will be skilled at keeping and maintaining accurate management information, creating and updating documentation and preparing reports.

The Senior QA Administrator will have a strong knowledge of Microsoft Office tools including Outlook, Excel, and Word and possess excellent communication, organisational and interpersonal skills. With a sharp eye for detail, you will follow processes meticulously, maintaining accuracy in all areas of your work. This will be a fast paced role so you must have the ability to prioritise tasks, work efficiently under pressure and meet deadlines.

You will be confident in building relationships and liaising with a variety of stakeholders and professionals across the Group about complex information. Previous experience in a quality related role and an understanding of the fostering sector would be advantageous - but this is not essential.
