About the Employer

Our client is a federated charity consisting of a central national office in Leicester, and 177 geographically dispersed local organisations, all working together under the same identity.

This charity recognises that being a parent has never been easy. Every one of their volunteers is trained to work alongside parents to overcome the challenges they are facing. They work with parents to build on their strengths and give them the support that they tell this charity that they need. They offer no judgement – just compassionate, confidential help and expert support. This peer-to-peer support is key to the difference this charity makes and often their volunteers have lived experience of the challenges their families are facing themselves.

About The Role

Our client is looking for a Quality and Safeguarding Officer to support their quality assurance (QA) programme and help ensure high standards of safeguarding practice across our network of federated charities.

As part of the Quality team, you will play a key role in coordinating QA reviews, supporting our QA self-assessment programme, and overseeing policy reviews. You will also help facilitate the Quality Reference Group (QRG), Safeguarding Forum, and Trustee Safeguarding Training.

In this role, you will provide safeguarding support by responding to queries, liaising with federated charities, escalating concerns to a designated safeguarding lead, and promoting best safeguarding practices across the network.

If this sounds like your type of challenge, then this charity would love to receive your application.

Closing date for applications is Friday 7th March, 5pm.
Interviews will take place virtually on the 18th and 19th March 2025.
